What scares me is how so few people, even on the progressive internet tubes, realize or recognize that we are already IN a fucking depression. Jobs still disappearing every damned day, prices being artificially inflated, even FOOD is becoming a luxury, and yet the billionaire motherfuckers keep flaunting their waste, greed, and ego.
Within the next five years, “EAT THE RICH” is going to become more than a goofy Aerosmith song, it’s going to become the MENU.
Start stocking-up on those canned-goods & water, kids.
]]>Screw the stockholders, but the workers are going to be without jobs.
They corrupt everything they touch and death and destruction follows in their wake. The cartoon at your place isn’t just about the war, it’s about every major screw-up since 2001.
]]>Profits are all that matter, and they generally think, much like the pharmaceutical companies, that the disgustingly high profits will far outweigh the potential liability, seeing as how they have a 4-500% profit margin and the tax write-offs that they get for what little R&D that they still do.
And in the Bush world, as we all know, it’s PEOPLE who are disposable, and any “ancillary items” (four-legged furry children) are just so much more paperwork.
Kinda hard not to crawl into a hole and pull the rock across the entrance when you look at the way that these greed-whores have corrupted and destroyed so much of the planet.
]]>“Stockman devised the first Reagan budget, with its broad tax cuts and big boosts in military spending, and helped move it through Congress over the objections of skeptical Democrats. At the same time, he secretly began giving weekly interviews to Bill Greider, a Post editor and an old friend of his. When Greider published an article based on the interviews, called “The Education of David Stockman,” in the Atlantic magazine, all hell broke loose.
Stockman told Greider that the Reagan budget was built on false premises, that it employed a “magic asterisk” to conceal the size of its inevitable deficits and that the tax cuts he had championed were really designed to benefit the wealthy. The detailed accounting of the internal battles that produced a budget that would saddle the country with years of debt was a stunning indictment of the very administration in which Stockman was serving.”
This applies to Just about everything Republican’ts! *Built on False Premises* is the understatement of the YEAR on how they DO Business!

]]>Regulation is one of the most essential and legitimate tasks of government, but the nuts in charge right now aren’t doing any and aren’t having any. Now there’s something to worry about: unregulated nuts, and not just those in the PB jar.
