Based upon the results of a Senate cloture vote on the Buffett Rule (i.e.: “Paying a Fair Share Act,” and/or S.2230), late Monday, what passes for so-called, two-party governance in America these days is little more than a deeply-captured train wreck.
Has the self-evident, complete takeover of the U.S. by the one percent in this election year become so obvious that what we end up witnessing down in Washington D.C. is little more than really lame kabuki and wishful thinking about change that’s going nowhere fast?
That would appear to be the case.
