There are many reasons for our current poor condition on this earth.  But the indoctrination by and for special causes replacing education for all would be a good place to start.  If "Trickle Down" were a viable plan for society why do we not hear this cry anymore?  Politics is not necessarily an anathema to our societ...more

While this belief may not be racist, it certainly is bias.  The only generalization that seems to apply here is that the 2% are doing much better, and the 98% are doing much worse.  A team does not succeed because a few do well: it takes a family.  If our world continues to deteriorate, but we find a planet that will s...more

There seems to be a problem with some of the elite who just assume that all who comment here are dead beats.  Four years in the USMC, and 31 years at a big corporations have provided me with a decent retirement.  But in the past 2 decades the 2% have had a median increase of wealth of over 450% while the 98% have stagn...more

Now I know why some of us were called Jar-head.  The house of rep. has to initiate and or approve all bills pertaining to money and taxes.  Obama has actually returned 10% of his salary to gov.  Those officials in congress continue to take a salary even as the obstruct and filibuster any bills that don't give to big co...more

Where was the lust and greed for "sound economic principles" when our gov. was passing tax cuts for the rich, starting two wars, claiming that "deficits don't matter" while failing to budget for this behavior?  Now we are drowning in the results, while the median income of the 2% has increased over 450% and the 98% has...more

Can we assume that OTV is just a GOP hatchet tool?  Where was this ideologue when Bush/Cheney were passing tax cuts for the rich, and starting 2 wars with no budget implications?  Where was the uproar when McCain and his posse were claiming that "Deficits don't matter"?  Just because this party advocates "Hypocrisy" as...more

Sounds like a Glen Beck conspiracy: OTV must have been indoctrinated at Fox since his views of how our gov. operates lacks any factual basis, and OTV lacks a rudimentary education.  Ignorance is no excuse for this political accusation, but like Rush this person is just not "informed".  This bill passed both houses of c...more

Once again our elected representatives have demonstrated that our laws are meant for the general public and not themselves.  The only book they worship is their pocket books.  They are similar to the Mafia: they care only about themselves - the rest of us are just along for the ride The president should have put congre...more

This is still a free country regardless of what you hear from Fox and friends, so Bye Bye!!!..  Some Texans want to be like Mexico, but they don't know how to leave either.  Every state, group, or clan has their 10% who don't like anything about a gov. that does not function just to please them.  I believe this is why ...more
