"US Uncut, a new movement, organized protests at more than forty different Bank of America branches across the country to bring light on the tax evasion of multi-billion dollar corporations, corporate tax avoidance and theatrical "bail-ins."  Armand Biroonak, a DC Uncut Co-Founder joins the show with details."

The Coffee Party (or as I would describe as the democratic socialist version of the Tea Party) is a left-wing populist version, of the right-wing Christian-Nationalist/Conservative-Libertarian Tea Party. You're talking about Occupy Wall Street, the Green Party, Democratic Socialists of America, and the Far-Left flank of the Democratic Party, that wants to form their version of the Tea Party, but for the Democratic Party.

The Coffee Party believes in democratic socialism, which means protecting the welfare state and if anything expanding it. Expanding the Federal Government to solve America's problems, not cut it. That the debt and deficit is not the issue, that lack of economic and job growth is the real crisis. And that one reason why America's economy has struggled now. is because the Federal Government is not big enough and doesn't spend enough money. Even though we are at now 3.7% or 25% of GDP and borrow 40% of every dollar that the Federal Government spends. 

The Coffee Party wants to move America to Sweden (economically, culturally, and politically)  and be more like Sweden or Britain, that spend 50% of their GDP's on its central government. And they say a lot of our economic problems would go away. That would be the thinking like the social democratic left. 

So you have two competing political ideology's here. You have more of a libertarian or conservative-libertarian Tea Party that says the Federal Government spends too much and if they just cut back and taxed less and gave people more liberty.

The Tea Party saying that if Uncle Sam was smaller and consumed less, than his nephews and nieces could solve their problems on their own. Which is coming from the right. 

And then you have a social democratic Coffee Party on the Far-Left that says our main problems is that the Federal Government doesn't spend and tax enough and should do more of that on everybody. Not just the wealthy, they have more of a collectivist approach instead of an individualist approach to politics. 

These are two competing factions that could hold both the Democratic and Republican parties hostage. (So to speak) In the sense that if they don't do exactly what they want, they could destroy the major parties within. Or threaten to leave the major parties all together and walk out and from their own political parties. 

The debt ceiling debate is a perfect example of this potential chaos, obstruction, and political revolution. The problem that a Coffee Party has is that they represent the Far-Left of the country. And there's a short ceiling to what they can do in America and the type of support that they can come up with.
