The Parable of the Thieves

January 22nd, 2012 · 1 Comment · Health Care, Lobbying, Media, Politics, Populism, taxes, Wall Street

When reason fails, people fall back on superstition. The American society has long operated under the basic principle that hard work creates abundance and abundance may solve all our earthly ills. When that logic, which has always been one of our foundations, along with “fair play” and “brotherhood” among citizens…although a creaky stair-climb with many [...]

OCCUPY AMERICA!

October 26th, 2011 · Comments Off · Capitalism, Culture, jobs, Labor, Politics, Populism, taxes, Wall Street

The last big show of Populist sentiment in this country was when the people of Wisconsin stood up against an oppressive Governor and a neo-Fascist Republican legislature who wanted to dismantle the state government, give away tens of millions of dollars in tax breaks to wealthy business owners, and pit one average middle class family [...]

Returning the Great American Middle Class

October 21st, 2011 · Comments Off · Politics, Populism

This is about returning government to the People. This is about returning the Middle Class to America. If you read this and you are not a Republican, you will understand it immediately. When you do, you should send it to everyone you know and tell them to send it to everyone they know. Now they [...]

Neocon Lies About Taxes and Austerity

July 10th, 2011 · 1 Comment · Politics, Populism, taxes, The Budget, Wall Street

We have to stay on point, stay focused. The time has passed when the average American family can be civil and or laid back about what is happening in society. The Neoconservatives are blindly working for big capitalism to drive down wages, reduce the average equity or net worth of Americans, and control all of [...]

The Trouble with the Trouble with the Economy

June 13th, 2011 · Comments Off · Economics, Politics, taxes

We’ve got trouble. Right here in Washington City. And that starts with a “T” and that rhymes with a “G” and that stands for GOP! The Neocon Party is out to use the economy to cause massive trouble for American citizens. The Republicans want to slash spending because…they say…we are going over the cliff. If [...]

The Reagan Legacy

February 9th, 2011 · Comments Off · Capitalism, Economics, Politics

The American scene has changed since 1980 and not for the better. What is our biggest problem today? That’s right: the national debt. Everything to do with the national debt goes back to Ronald Reagan. And it is much more complex and sinister than just the numbers, which themselves are staggering. From the end of [...]

A Tale of Two Senators

January 20th, 2011 · 1 Comment · Economics, Politics, wars and militarism

One is tough; the other is a slug. You decide which is which. Does anyone remember the old commercial about the guy who drives the guy to the snowplow? How does the guy who runs the snowplow actually get to the snowplow? The answer in that case happened to be Volkswagon. But there is often [...]

The Great Neoconservative Tax Fallacy

January 16th, 2011 · 1 Comment · Politics, taxes

Since Ronald Reagan was elected, the whole thrust of the Conservative and now the Neoconservative movement in Right Wing Republican politics is to tell people a huge lie. It is a lie that started out simply as a lack of understanding by Reagan of economics and business. But, because of his popularity, and a severe [...]

Senator Sanders Tells of Civil War on the Middle Class

December 11th, 2010 · 1 Comment · Politics, Populism

Mr. Smith finally came to Washington. Only his name wasn’t Smith and the message went out far beyond the chamber of the U.S. Senate. A determined, intelligent, dedicated U.S. Senator told the rest of the country what he, and many million other citizens felt…that he was mad as hell at the lobbyists and the billionaires [...]

Neocon Republicans and the Super-Rich

December 5th, 2010 · 2 Comments · Politics, taxes

Now that the Neocon Republicans have shown us their colors in the bright light of day….no tax cuts for the lower 98% of Americans unless they can have huge tax cuts for the top 2%…we can get on about our business. They have made it clear who they are and whom they favor. Here is [...]

Tax Cut Magic

December 2nd, 2010 · 1 Comment · Politics, taxes

The Neocons, formerly the Republicans, (there are now no remaining Republicans) have a unique perspective. On December 2, 2010, the Democrats, and a few Neocons, in the House of Representatives voted to give every taxpayer in the United States who earns less than $250,000 a tax cut. The Republicans not only did not vote for [...]

Republicans Plan Tax Cuts for Billionaires.

November 10th, 2010 · Comments Off · Media, Politics

Rule number one—always remember that the current Republican Party is out to get you unless you are a multi-millionaire and a donor to the Republican Party. Republicans at the top are all millionaires, like Dick Cheney who left government only for a few years to clean up as President of Halliburton by using his Defense [...]

Propaganda, Elections, Taxes, and Losing America

November 6th, 2010 · Comments Off · Lobbying, Media, Politics

In a bold statement, Senator Mitch McConnell must have encountered a “senior moment” because he momentarily lost his talking points. He actually had the nerve to tell the truth before the video tape could be doctored, snipped or hidden. He told the American People the objective of the Republican Congress. He said that the Republicans [...]

The Truth About the National Debt

February 2nd, 2010 · Comments Off · Economics, jobs, Politics

Attention: propaganda groups! Neocons to propaganda groups: Come in Please! Attention! Let’s distract the Helots, the Tea Baggers. Let’s send them to the opposite end of the economic spectrum, from the recovery and the need for jobs to the huge deficit so that they will not really understand what is happening in this country and [...]
