you have a point there Cody. decoupling the (urgently necessary, IMHO)
political opposition to ultra-liberism from nationalism and isolationism
is a hard task. politicians in this phase are just phishing for votes on
the boundaries, which will consolidate later around a better defined
agenda (which also could explain the surging at the polls at times).

Undoubtedly there are a lot of votes from public sector fans that are
left out of many political programs. for now, i just sense this is a
tactic to address them. or perhaps you are right he is not an anarchist.

But then honestly, at least for EU (somehow very different from USA) I
think socialism is preferrable to anything else right now, because its
the only way to address poverty and growing nationalism: a disease
created by ultra-lib and narcissistic elites (from left and right). And
its too late now to issue a lot of liquidity: the ECB is not as smart as
the FED. the european turbo-capitalism lacks the american egalitarian
ethos and the philantropic posture, its all built around
almost-provincial enclaves with a yucky smell of "purity" around them,
accumulating a lot of wealth in a few spots. the lack of bottom-line
economies of support can become our grave as the masses have zillions
reasons to be hangry and hungry and do horrible things. enough zombie
movies, please.

As of US... I don't know Sanders but from having overheard from friends
it seems to me that Tim just nailed it in three lines

besides all that, all my hopes today are in... V for Varoufakis!
he haz bitcoinz! :^)))))
