(11,849 posts)with a system where as soon as a representative gets elected they quickly have to turn to fund raising for the next election,what else could we expect to get but corporate players? after all the corps have all the money
and yet this is the system we have,at least for now
now is the time to flood the house with calls to EXPAND food stamps not cut them..afterall the corp farms are gonna get their money so why shouldn't the people get their food? we already pay for it...FEED AMERICANS FIRST
now is the time to fight for WIC......it is an extremely popular program and to fight against it makes repubs look like monsters,i live in a very red area but no one will admit to wanting to starve infants
here is a simple idea to help with income equality,an idea tea peops would love ,double the personal income exemption,or better yet triple it from 3500 to 10,500......it would decrease taxes for every1 but the guy making a million plus gets a tiny fraction of help while the guy at the bottom gets a huge decrease in his burden...pay for it with a slight raise in the death tax for huge estates
these are just ideas off the top of my head but we need a conversation and list of demands
