I have come to the sideways conclusion we have to lie our way to the truth and better public policy

 Yes I know I am writing this late on  April Fools Day, or at least in this time zone, but do not be confused by the title. This may be the only way we get anything worthwhile done. 


We need to start a campaign where we get people on Fox News or Newsmax or wherever saying AOC stole the New Green Deal because she didn’t want capitalists making money off of it. We need to get them to tout that this is the next big stock investment to get those 401ks humming again and we need to make sure Congress passes laws right away.


Or get the anger going saying Republicans need to get back control of infrastructure projects and not let Biden steal Trump’s campaign promise.


Okay this isn’t my minimum wage follow up, but try this out. I read somewhere that one of our finest Republicans had used the phrase Capitalist Communism or some such nonsense complaining about how large corporations are trying to take our rights away or something. Okay so we need to put this in the right wing media that the large corporate communists are taking our money away by not paying us enough. Get the working class fans of Fox all riled up because these Corporate Communists are stealing our money and Congress needs to pass better minimum wage laws and maybe even more. 


Not sure about this idea? Heck of a lot better than the big lies that are being promulgated on Fox and elsewhere right now. They seem to work. 


So look at some policy we need and lets create the package and give it a go.


Cheers
