BBB of TOP goes totally OTP!

In a thread at TOP, BBB said:

It isn't [Sanders's] ideology. Its his overloaded amount of wacko and weirdo shit he's written and done in his life.

Yes, Warren can clear a vetting. There's a few problematic items but nothing nearly as crazy as the shit Sanders has said and done.

The leftist hippy shit is fine for Vermont. Maybe Oregon. But in the rest of the country... No.

To which I responded

Hoo boy!

Illinois law - never a dull moment. Think Peyton Place on steroids.

First, the players:

A. Illinois Supreme Court. The top court in Illinois, elected by the public, retained if they achieve a certain level of supporting votes. Pretty much respected for being fair, smart, and beyond ethical reproach (See Iowa, Kansas, NC, Texas, and the New Jersey Supremes for a comparison)

Resilience: Co-ops 101 - An Introduction to Cooperatives 1/3

Resilience1.jpg
Corporate capitalism has failed western societies. In the western world, inequality is at its highest on record, the environment is threatened, and local communities have become corporate dependencies. Presently, many businesses in a community are not local, but are franchises of a national or multinational corporation that pays its workers as little as possible, ruins the environment, and sends the profits to investors far away. Many consumers are left isolated individually with no bargaining power.
In order to grow resilient local economies, communities will have to develop local businesses and local organizations to break the stranglehold that multinational corporations have on them.
The cooperative is a form of organization for business or for consumers that works for the betterment of the local community - its people, environment, and its economy. This is the first in a three-part series on co-ops. More below.
