Just think, in less than four weeks we get the Paul Ryan budget plan, oh boy, this bill will get gutted right along with other social programs that HUMAN BEINGS have been paying into since they were born or able to work based on the Paul Ryan Ayn Rand concept of you have to fend for yourself to the corporate master, so screw you.
And just think to top it all off we have the disintegration of the SNAP, unemployment insurance payments, 18 million without jobs, 54 million HUMAN BEINGS going hungry in this country, no jobs bills have been passed in who knows how long, spreading of fear and hate, attacking the Department of Education, EPA, TSA, Immigration, anything that basically HUMAN BEING NEED to live clean water, air, food.
And finally lets not forget the 3 TRILLION that was put on a credit card to fund a war, and with ironic hypocrisy how many of these disabled are vets, that have been waiting for this health care system?
And lets not forget 25 BILLION in government shut down.
Then just to add more hypocrisy of outright disdain we are having right wing state laws being passed that if you have, solar power on your home or business, which you may use to charge your mobile device such as a wheel chair, your getting a user fee for something that is basically FREE because the polluters of coal and gas are pissed off about wind and solar, and then we have a who's who in this do nothing Congress, and the WHO of doing nothing except having been sitting on there hands since 2006 talk about hypocrisy.
Then the DO NOTHINGS in CONGRESS have been making 174,000 a year and if you are in the leadership (DOING NOTHING) position during this time you were making over 193,000 and 225,000
