Paul Street's article in today's CounterPunch: a confirmation of what many of us suspect.

Paul Street published an article in CounterPunch this morning entitled "Bernie Sanders, the Company Man". You can find the article here. The article strongly confirms the suspicions many of us here at c99p have about him.

Even though, as I pointed out in my previous diary, the "Left" is at best a point of pride on a few Facebook profiles, the Right feels obliged to restrain any sort of deviance because, you see, austerity planning has its beneficiaries.

Caitlyn Johnstone has been writing some pretty good articles lately. Today she hit one out of the park.
