Perfect name for Schultz, Bloomberg, Trump, Steyer...

[Lonestarblue]

24. Schultz is little more than Donald Trump in disguise.

I saw him on Morning Joe this morning, and it’s clear that he thinks big business has the solution to everything. On healthcare, business needs to provide access, not government. On taxes, it’s ridiculous to punish people like him with his rags-to-riches story by raising taxes on the rich (never mind that taxes on the rich have been cut over and over while the middle class picks up the bill—remember how hard the AMT hit a lot of people who weren’t rich?).

He’s a perfect member of the Billionaire Boys Club who just wants to protect his privileges. When he said this morning that he could break the logjam that is preventing government from working, all I could think about was Trump’s proclamation at the Republican convention that he alone could fix everything wrong with the US (namely, people of color even being in the country, brown immigrants daring to set foot on our shores, Muslims who need to be sent back to anywhere but here, taxex on billionaires, etc., etc., etc.).

No more billionaire presidents who think government is a profit center!
