There is nothing left to nationalize and yet there is hardly a person here who can honestly say he accomplished a single good thing for them.

I'm not sure about that. I talk to people every week who are thrilled to death that their food stamps allocation has been raised, sometimes quite dramatically.

Notice how "food stamps" have become invisible? They changed the name of the program to some mysterious acronym (SNAP), and replaced the stamps with debit cards that look just like real credit cards and are replenished electronically each month. A perfect vehicle for retail level redistribution of wealth. And the asshole beltway republicans saith nary a whisper.
