America is being held hostage by the very people we allowed to get into office.
Why are they here?
Democrats did not vote in the midterm elections.
This has been the norm, so the media has assured us. The mid term elections are not important.
All politicians are the same.
Why vote?
Does what has happened so far since midterms answer that?
Do you want to lose the rights that we have fought so hard for the last hundreds + years?
Do you agree with the legislation that is being passed across the country against women, against poor people, against our children.
Did you realize, when you couldn't be bothered to vote, that you would lose Social Security, Medicare,education, research, medicaid, food stamps, unemployment insurance - those programs which you support your whole working life.
Now if you cannot work, those are the very programs the Republicans and T party wants to ruin, destroy, end. The ones that are supposed to be the Americans safety net. The net they want to cut/slash/destroy.
Whose fault is this?
Who did not vote in the last election?
Do You hear us now?

Evangelical Christians
So disgusting, that it is difficult to write about.
Who are these so called evangelical Christians? What would Jesus say about them?
When would he have backed the ideology that the Republicans endorse?
Would our Lord have said that taking the food out of the mouths of babes is a good idea? Wasn’t it Him who said harm not one hair on a child’s head? Guess he wasn’t talking about feeding, clothing or educating them. Not to mention any kind of health care.
Still, the Republicans claim to be Christian.
Lets see.. Would a true Christian take money from the poor and give it to the rich? What is all this bellyaching from the wealthy right about giving up some of their wealth to the people whose backs they made their wealth from? Would that not more closely follow the Lords word? If he asks you for his cloak give him also your coat? was that just meant for the poor people to give their last rags to the rich?
I kind of doubt it.
If you would read the Bible instead of going to some Palin Tea Party do dad, or a Republican bull shitter where they spout they are the Christian right, the Moral Majority. Excuse me, I see nothing at all moral about condemning people to death so you can have a bigger CPAC. What is moral about subsidizing the oil and gas companies and cutting the food we give to our children. What is moral about building a bridge to nowhere and cutting school funding so drastically that we must close some of them. What is moral about renting yourself your own house for ten thousand dollars a month and charging it to the taxpayers? What is moral about taking off to south America to see your mistress instead of running the state you were elected to run. Just what is it that is moral about the Republicans?
They do not even stand for real people. They stand for big businesses. They are not people. You cannot put a corporation in jail. Corporations do not get cancer. Corporations do not take vacations. Why, why why would people ever, ever vote Republican, or even think about it? Unless, of course, they are not a Christian.
The Republicans take the Lords name in vain when they use it for propaganda.

#Wisconsin #Union vs. #GOP?
As it turns out, this is not really about Wisconsin, not especially about the Unions, either. This is about the control of the working population in the United States of America.
The land of the free…it appears is only free when you are very rich.
A lot of people look down on the union, blaming unions for making prices higher, for the manufacturing to move overseas to seek cheaper workers. It would seem that many people do not understand that if someone doesn’t stand up for the working people, especially unions, all people who work and earn any wage at all are at risk. The reason you have a living wage now is not because of the companies good heart, not because management saw that you and your children had to work sixteen hours a day for food and shelter, not because they did not know.
The companies do not care. The company is only in business to make profit, if it comes at the expense of your life, too bad, so sad, there are more starving people where you come from.
The company does not even care if it is making profit. It want to make more, companies are greedy by their very nature. If they can make a penny more off you, they do not care if you go without heat. Companies have no conscience.
The only way to keep companies and corporations from exploiting all peoples is to be united. The only way to fight money is to overpower it with people. The only way to secure your rights, what few we have left, is to protest, to strike, to stop work. If you want that to be successful, you must get more than one person or two involved. You must have thousands. Hence, a union to protect peoples rights.
Why have we let the powers that be in power? How could have so many so-called sane people voted for them? I know in our case, we did not. But the voting machines say we do. The machines were proven to be rigged before, what would make Americans believe it hasn’t been so again.. What they got by with once, they will attempt to do so again. These are the people that are running and ruining our lives.
What is absolutely amazing is that so many people are still so stupid that they believe what these paid mercenaries are telling them. Rather like the old adage, if you tell someone something long enough, and with enough emphasis, they will believe you, even when it is patently obvious it is against their own best interests.
Well, we had traitors in the Revolutionary war that sided with England. Now, we have traitors in the civil war with the Rich Autocrats, would be dictators who are well on their way.
It started with Reagan, and continues to this day.
When are Americans going to wise up and say no more?

We are condemning our children
We are condemning them to a lifetime of failure.
We are condemning them to a world full of uneducated, illiterate children
We are condemning them to poverty
We are condemning them to jails
We are condemning them to a hopeless future filled with all the wrong things.
We are condemning them to a life without. Music. Art. History.
You think it is bad now? Wait until the budget cuts really kick in. there is a budget shortfall built into the system already. Years ago the budget was sabotaged by the Republicans governing Texas at that time.
This shortfall will only get worse.
Why?
The people in power are refusing to pay their taxes, sucking up as much ad they can of the taxpayers money in the form of subsidies, polluting our atmosphere, our water, our earth for the almighty dollar. Ant we don’t even get any of the dollars.
They are reserved for the very richest.
But that is another subject.
Our children are not getting the funding they need let alone the funding they deserve.
We can fund the bridge across the lake to literally nowhere, but we have to cut funding for our children?
We can spend millions to refurbish the Governors’ mansion, but we have to close schools?
We can pay oil companies to take our money and raise our prices, but we cannot have music or the arts in our classrooms?
We subsidize the power plants to take our money and pollute our atmosphere. We give them billions of dollars for research, and the best they can come up with it to ‘bury the gas underground?’ and ‘how to make money off of filthy coal without people knowing that filthy coal is lignite”
They make quite enough profit off our backs as it is.
Take away all their subsidies.
They don’t need them. They use them to buy our politicians and to repress our children and us.
They use them to keep us in slavery.
They use them to imprison those who do not agree with them. They use them to condemn to death people who need transplants.
Why are we allowing this? The people who live in this country absolutely can afford to take care of its children, its seniors, its disabled.
Not while we are supporting the filthy rich at the same time.
The Republicans rejoiced when they defeated the Democrats tax bill. The one that would raise taxes on the very wealthy 3%, remember, all you people who voted Republican?
This was such a huge victory.
For the super rich.
It was certainly not a victory for our children.
It was not a victory for the seniors.
It was not a victory for the disabled.
Who’s fault is it?
That is obvious.
Does it matter?
Not at this time.
What does?
Who are we going to support? Who are we going to vote for?
Our children, our grandchildren?
Or the politicians who got us here by selling us out to the mega rich, while micromanaging our personal lives, deregulating businesses so they could screw over their customers better, and then believing we are so stupid that we will believe it when they say they are for ‘small government’.
This is a lie.
The only ‘small government’ they are for is the government that has just overseen the systematic looting of the American people for the last 50 years of Republican agenda.
Wake up, people. Or your children just may not.
