The Republicans Presidential candidates say they want to improve the economy. If I

[rladdi]

remember they destroyed the economy and jobs under G. Bush. None of them have the competent to understand how the economy works. Yes, they know how to make their billionaire friends more profits.

1. That is their understanding of improving the economy

make the 1% richer at the expense of the 99% and if possible make the 1% drop to >.5%.

2. Since Eisenhower

The only Republican I'd give half a cent of credit to on economics would be be Bush Sr; for raising taxes which was the right thing to do at the time and it cost him the election. Not that I'm shedding any tears as it hardly makes up for the rest of his administration's policies.

Also, It started much earlier than Shrub. Saint Raygun started this crap. Though even Jimmy Carter was buying into deregulation to some extent in the late 70's.


The current crop will do their level best to impoverish the average person. Average being anyone not in the top .1%.

3. Words to live by - Never trust a Republican with your money. Seriously

never trust Republicans with your own money, your family's money, your church's money, your school's money, your government's money, well, you get the idea, right. And besides your money, never trust them with your home, health, happiness, JOB, or anything else you can think of.

Simply put, NEVER TRUST A REPUBLICAN.

4. And, watching the gop's JV Debates ...

Carly Fiorina, to rave gop reviews, indicated that she would treat the government the way she treated HP.

If I remember correctly, didn't she oversee the tanking of HP shares, and the firing of 30,000 workers, while tripling her own salary ... and then, after being fired herself, walked away with $42+ million?

Thanks, but no thanks.
