IN other words ya got nothing but total non-sense...Got it !!! so you're saying to us that Trump isn't a control freak ??? you're saying Chris Cristy isn't a control freak ???or any of the republicans running for office aren't control freaks cause they're not career politician ... only the socialist bernie sanders is the control freek career politician ... we get itALL socialists are control freaks and delusional to the core, and Bernie is a career politician making him corrupt to the core.I think you have no Idea when he states he's a democrat socialist ... you have this notion that he wants to take everybody's money to run the country ... he doesn't ... thats the furthest thing from the truth ... have you ever listen to what he has said ??? or are you one of these conservatives who hears the word socialist and shuts down all thoughtHis only answer is like any socialist, Robin Hood.Fact is, since the GOP made all their cuts to government programs that help the poor and since they implimented their unregulated free trade, more people have slipped into poverty. And charities and religion are proving they are not capable of handling or solving the growing problem. This is what our government is for.
This was written in 2007. This is why I laugh when Republicans try to suggest that Obama is at fault for the mess we are in.
Roll Back the Reagan Tax Cuts | Common Dreams
Since Bush has been president:
over 5 million people have slipped into poverty;
nearly 7 million Americans have lost their health insurance;
median household income has gone down by nearly $1,300;
three million manufacturing jobs have been lost;
three million American workers have lost their pensions;
home foreclosures are now the highest on record;
the personal savings rate is below zero - which hasn't happened since the great depression;
the real earnings of college graduates have gone down by about 5% in the last few years;
entry level wages for male and female high school graduates have fallen by over 3%;
wages and salaries are now at the lowest share of GDP since 1929.
How would you increase household income? - Increase take home pay. Lower taxes. Personal savings is a choice. If people are losing money paycheck to paycheck on living essentials, then that is problem. If people are spending their money on non-essentials and not saving, how is their choice my problem? As for real earnings of college graduates has declined by 5%, maybe colleges need to push and focus its students in areas of study where there is a demand in jobs. Get the degree in Computer Science and take Women's Studies courses as a minor; not the inverse.
Finally, as for manufacturing jobs, it is too easy to say that the reason jobs have been lost due to greediness of C-Levels who ship these jobs overseas. If China, India, and other cheap labor countries had the same corporate tax rate, same labor laws, same legal liability levels, and same government regulations, then the C-Level greediness mantra might work.
Taking and giving, never works long term... Lol
Works fine till you run out of other people's money, then that society vanishes, in a spread of ruins and slaughter.
