BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street investors are “strip mining the wealth from the poor and middle class, in housing - BlackRock is correct, but Vanguard and State Street are not good examples - better examples are Blackstone, KKR, Carlyle, Apollo. Vanguard & StateSt. are guilty of rubberstamping managements in proxy voting which has resulted in problems which is why they are on list.
That’s helpful, Chris. Thank you. I recognize a couple of those and agree all need to be fleshed out in the public discourse! It’s too easy to hide behind the better known names.

I really appreciate all the dots you connected, Liam. in your recent article, Who’s Behind the Progressive Turnout Project? Though I want to read it a few more times, I feel much more prepared to talk with my progressive friends, and perhaps awaken some hearts.
If he was to unequivocally give a statement of support for the 2nd amendment I would be more inclined to believe. As it stands now I do not trust him. Or any politician for that matter. His party is an out of control bunch of fascist maniacs. Just like Trump being unable to drain the swamp Kennedys party is an untameable riot of spoiled children..
RFK internalized his dad’s words as he often repeats them: These are your people. RFK works for US in his career and now as a first time political candidate. He feels the Common Good.
Thanks for link to that comment. RFK, Jr's conditional "if" in that sentence seems important. Do you see Republicans and Democrats coming to a consensus on an assault weapons ban? Seems, to me, he might as well have said, Yes, when pigs fly, but he was being more tactful while giving his interviewer the "yes" she was looking for.
Banning military-grade weapons and requiring those who want to own firearms meet the same criteria required for owning and operating a motor vehicle is not now and never has been "anti-gun". And it requires a vote of 3/4ths of Congress to "kick" and Amendment "to the curb". Rejecting ANY candidate who is otherwise clearly running to represent the people over one issue—and a manufactured one, at that—just means you're making the people really doing you damage very, very happy.
Yeah. Joey Biden and the democrats are the ones doing me damage. And, they seem happy about it. The right to bear arms has always been about our freedom against a tyrannical government. The violence is commited by mentally ill people who I agree should not be allowed to have firearms. Police need better training. Punishment must be swift and severe. If Robert can go there I could change my mind.

That's great to hear, BB. Thank you.
Mr. Kennedy is certainly beloved to me.

He said he would sign an antigun bill. He would kick the 2nd amendment to the curb. Once an authoritarian always an authoritarian.
I don’t think you’re correct. I’d offer this: https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4072813-rfk-jr-argues-gun-control-cannot-meaningfully-reduce-gun-violence/

Why wouldn't he? He owns firearms. Heavens, his mother was a crack shot.
I guess we'll have to wait and see. I'm not ready to pin a tail on any of the donkeys yet.
