Republicans work to steal another Trillion from America
It's always hard for me to wrap my mind around a trillion dollars, but Republicans have no problem trying to steal that much from hard working Americans. Their hate for this country and her people is unfathomable by mere mortals. See their rich campaign contributors see the writing on the wall and they are desperate to squeeze the every last drop of Americans future away from the working people of this country before the Republicans are washed out of power. I'm sure the brain dead Republicans reading this will scream that it's the Rich people's money and they deserve to keep it. Actually they will come out with some lame excuse about small business owners losing their farms and business because of estate taxes. It's a load of crap! The number of people being effected by these taxes are insignificant by normal standards. The Republicans are really only looking out for the super wealthy, there are perfectly legal ways for small business people and farmers to transfer wealth without any significant cost if they actually try, but the Republicans are grand masters at creating the notion of a "crisis" where none exists. Instead they want to help the poor billionaires pass along their fortunes unfettered by the cost those fortunes bring upon the American people. I've explained it before, but there is a cost of infrastructure in this country. It costs money to allow people to get rich and those people should have shoulder some of the burden for allowing them the opportunity to become fabulously wealthy. Instead the Republicans demand that my child's future should be sacrificed so that they can guarantee their greedy campaign contributors fortunes can be protected. It's sickening, but it represents what the Republican party has always been about. 10 Trillion dollars worth of debt ceiling now, with this it will probably have to go to 11 Trillion. This is the best that the Republican party has to offer folks, it's time for a change.
