You obviously don't agree with it, so you are being sarcastic. Is your sarcasm supposed to be proof that there is no such thing as the "deep state"? You don't think Eisenhower was right to warn us of such a thing by another name?
You lament the destruction of our middle class, and you blame corporate greedy interests for that destruction. You somehow think that the governmental regulatory power that enables corporate domination, is in bed with it, is going to be the solution to restoring our freedoms and the middle class.
Josh Mandel's over the top statement, Donald Trump, the Tea Party, and even the various leftist protests and "occupy" efforts all resulted from the alienation of American citizens from the government that we expect to serve and protect us even from itself, but, instead dominates us and sells its service to the highest bidders.
We no longer have a constitutionally limited government. Nor a dominant free press to help keep it honest and in check. We have dependents on a self-serving oligarchy, and protesters against that and who are being squeezed out of the public forum of expression, even from the internet outlets that were an escape from the military industrial congressional media complex.
And you want to preserve this for your children.
