Biden's Hollow Victory Lap

Chris Hedges tells it like he sees it:

The elites collectively sold out the American public to corporate power. They did this by lying to the public about the consequences of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), trade deals, dismantling welfare, revoking Glass-Steagall, imposing austerity measures, deregulating Wall Street, passing draconian crime bills, launching endless wars in the Middle East, and bailing out the big banks and financial firms rather than the victims of their fraud. These lies were far, far more damaging to the public than any of the lies told by Trump. These elites have been found out. They are hated. They deserve to be hated.

The Biden administration – and Biden was one of the principal architects of the policies that fleeced the working class and made war on the poor – is nothing more than a brief coda in the decline and fall, set against which is China’s rising global economic and military clout.
