I say it over and over and take no credit for it. I credit my father-in-law who said to me in the early 1970s “Man is by nature selfish and greedy.”
And here we are. Now some 50 years later we are ruled by a class of politicians many of whom are career politicians. The large majority of them are millionaires, many of them multi-millionaires. They stay in their political positions for many, many terms and then pass them on to family members. Or, quite simply, we are now ruled by a political class very similar to if not the same as the Politburo was in Communist Russia.
We deserve better.
We are told by these people what to do, yet they do what they please.
We deserve better.
Examples? Do I really have to? Al Gore: he flies in a private plane and uses more electricity in a month than his whole town. Yet he tells us to conserve. We must sacrifice so he can live like a king.
Our media today is no better than Pravda is in Russia. It is biased and dishonest. Some of the print media is owned by the billionaire-owners of large corporations with strong left-wing ties. So, like the Bloomberg paradigm, they leave the lefties alone while they concentrate on destroying the Republicans, especially President Trump. They are so corrupt, dishonest and brazen that they don’t hide their bias anymore and aren’t afraid to admit it or say it openly.
We deserve better.
Our government, particularly Congress, stays home during this pandemic and gets paid while they tell people who literally need their paycheck to survive on a day-to-day basis to stay home and stay out of work and thus not get paid.
We deserve better.
If you look back to what now seems so long ago, the impeachment, we see it was plotted before Trump was inaugurated and the biased media’s not investigating it truly has allowed it to go where it has.
We deserve better. Trump deserves better.
General Flynn and Brett Kavanaugh are some good examples and metaphors for what happens if you go counter to the Darling Democrat politics. What the Democrats and their media lapdogs did to Flynn and Kavanaugh show how ruthless and destructive the Democrats are as a political party and as our media that are supposed to present unbiased truth. What happened to Flynn and Kavanaugh shows how power hungry that party is and how little they care for the people they are supposed to represent.
We all deserve better.
When the president of a country is criticized for saying that his job is to take care of the people of his country first, something is drastically wrong.
We deserve better than the politics we’ve seen from the left for the last four years. We deserve better than the government we have.
For all the taxes we pay and how rich we let our leaders get on our dime, we deserve a lot better.
David Green
We also deserve a lot better than the conservative republicans have given to us as well.
We don’t have far much further to go when republicans will on longer be able to stimulate the economy by lowering the tax rates.
Goddess help us all when the ballooning deficit bubble created by lower taxes while spending money like a drunken sailor finely bursts.
Conservatives policies have damaged Social Security and the Social Safety Nets while improvishing the poorest among us while enriching the 1%.
Those same policies were designed to bring about the very same economic conditions in both France and Russia. That caused the common people to support the French Revolution in France and the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia.
Leading to the calls to try Socialism here in America.
Conservatives looked the other way when predatory lenders lobbied congress to pass a law. That prevents students from being able to bankrupt against their student loans. If they cannot find gainful employment that allows them to pay those loans back.
When the predatory lenders promoted their predatory loans to inexperienced and financially ignorant college students
When college and university administrators raised tuition rates in response to the money from these predatory loans.
Over built up their campases with unnecessary buildings and created questionable degrees in courses that do prepare; the students who major in them to find gainful employment after graduating.
And over paid the Administrators and Presidents of these mis-labeled educational institutions; while cutting back the financial opportunities of support personal who keep these institutions up and running.
Conservative Republicans looked the other way when CEO’s and Upper and Lower Management. Funneled the money that should have used to increase the wages of the lowest paid hourly employees. Into yearly bonuses for CEO’s and Upper, middle and Lower management.
The crimes committed against those on the bottom of the Ponzi Scheme of our economy by both Liberal Democrats and Conservative Republicans. Cry out into the ears of the Father Above who will soon rise up and avenge those harmed by the economic policies promoted by both the Left and the Right.
