We saw from the RSC Touché Turtle head coming out of his shell of greed being backed with corruption from the 200 million RSC firms like American Enterprise Institute of the Cato crowd, Koch Brothers corruption and it will not be the last because Touché Turtle provided something like 418 filibusters because of these groups, and they got the means of this by using our DSG (democratic Study Group) in a tactic to hurt the middle class and the poor
