Rephrased: we, the average tax payers, want prosperity too.
But you aren't getting any with this ticket. There is no political force in the US that would question the trickle-down fairytales, and your broken elections system won't allow one to emerge.

So you vote for change, yet the economics policies stay as unequal as always. But in the process you supported a rapist and a criminal who calls execution of journalists, suppression of women, blatant racism and just death and destruction of non-privileged people everywhere.

if the genuinely unprivileged gain some consciousness of their condition because of Trump, there will be changed. You cannot claim it for them.

That's what's the most mind-boggling for me - since when are the Republicans the ones considered most likely to bring prosperity to the masses?
Since they don't promote politics that keep salaries low, inflate housing prices, increase external spending or drive criminality.

Well, so long as prosperity doesn't mean cheaper TVs with Chinese parts in them. I guess they will have to buy American TVs from now on.
I’ve seen more than a few comments and tips on HN about how to keep one’s TV from phoning China.
