Krugman Substack today 1/2 on inequality. Suggestions. Part 1 on income inequality, wealth far greater, see my profile chart, unchanged w Biden, Trump, asset, not jobs, based fnclzd econ for decades. Part 2 will focus on power, see chart below, I doubt on Dem labor left replaced by woke faux "left"

"they feel there’s no effective opposition to Trump, be it from Democratic elected officials or the party, the legal system, universities or other institutions." Industrial unions gave Dems power prior to 1980s, in sharp decline since then, chart. W/o that labor power, libs, woke faux "left" weak.

Per decline in industrial unions cited is huge decline in strikes, chart, from 1980s on, which made possible Dem trade deals NAFTA, China WTO. Strikes won higher wages/benefits cited. Woke faux "left" no living experience w this labor power. Public unions still strong, Trump/Musk going after them.

"oligarchs and the fascists sometimes have different goals ... main thing right now is ... fighting the fascists." V weak resistance to Trump/Musk blitzkrieg so far in US from oligarchs, libs, labor, law, woke faux "left." China only force strong enough, but all of these support US econ war on it.

Huge upset was Dems losing to worst candidate for POTUS, twice. Unaccountable Dems pretended they could win 2024 election, first w comatose POTUS, then his VP irredeemably tied to him. Dems finally slowly getting over that shock? Tip: run people w a pulse who oppose oligarchy junta. Win, not hard.
