+8Wow...pretty sure I feel a little dumber after reading that. You're right, things are so much better now that government controls the economy...nevermind the $16 trillion in debt, the 9% unemployment (oh and that figure only includes those still on unemployment pay, not those who ran out) and nearly 50% of Americans who don't pay income taxes...nevermind that. Capitalists are just greedy, evil rich people who love money...OH and they're all dirty Republicans...nevermind the fact that most of those infamous "1%ers" that everyone loves to hate are mostly Democrats and those dirty evil capitalists are mostly the middle class that supposedly everyone is trying to help...nevermind the fact that all those middle class business owners, trying to build a business from the ground up, are merely asking the government to get OUT of the way and allow them to grow. Nevermind any of that, it's much better when the banks and big business owners are in bed with the government....with the government passing anti-business bill after anti-business bill, nevermind the fact that the people who get hurt most by business regulations are the lower wage workers and entrepreneurs who are trying to build a business from the ground up. Meanwhile business that are already successful are hurt by new regulations but still able to get by, but the small business owners are left getting crushed and put out of business.
This should be on the front page of every news paper in the Nation!
