Corporate Welfare At Its Worst?

Nirek, excellent point. Here’s my problem with tax preference status for corporations and certain “elite” persons, every dollar that they are sitting on requires the Fed to print a replacement dollar. In order to have a functioning economy, money needs to circulate. Whenever there are persons or entities that can accumulate more money than they can ever spend in several generations, that money needs to be replaced by the Fed. Which is why they have been printing like crazy.

The NFL is not the only entity that has been taking the citizenry for a ride. Time to stop the gravy train on all tax preference status entities and bring them back to earth. This exemption has fed their egos for far too long, look where it has led them to…

Could Electing Hillary in 2016 Assure a Republican President in 2020?

Your last sentence sums it up nicely!!

Ad, Hill is and has always been a republican. I feel she is not much better than having Sarah Palin run the country. While she certainly has a better sense of what is required, she has always been a self-promoter. Her marriage to Bill is one of convenience and not borne out of love but a desire to get to the top. I think that seeing the first woman president, just to say we’ve done it is not enough of a reason for me to vote for her.

In 2008, my father and I got into a discussion regarding Obama’s consistent increasing primary wins and the percentage he was picking up as the primary season was in full swing. MA is always one of the last to hold a primary so for me it is usually a take an R ballot and vote for the least offensive. My dad had already voted in FL. He actually was openly weeping that he wouldn’t have the chance to vote for the first woman president of the US. As I explained to him then, she isn’t the right woman and to have a woman for the sake of saying we have a woman president is an exercise in futility. He has since passed and I maintain the same position today.

Even though the Rs think that they can rewrite history and make the President’s failures to push a progressive agenda a sign of his weakness, we all know the truth. We must make them pay at the polls this November. We can’t wait until 2016 and maybe some unknown will throw their hat in the ring and clock Hill again. I can dream, can’t I?

Spot on!! Our system is so broken that even the most practical legislation is impossible to achieve.

Every Republican Senator Is Disgusting

Nirek, you are so right that overturning this bad decision needs to be priority number one. By taking the Koch Bros out at the knees, so to speak, maybe we can get to governing again.

GOTV is currently the only way. I’m glad Bernie has put his toe in the water. We need his sense of human values stat!! I would gladly share Liz Warren with the rest of the nation if I thought she could help Bernie get the US back to some sense of sanity.

When all was still right with the world, I had a series subscription to the Boston Ballet. I miss it. Thanks for sharing your gift with the world.
