EVERY MIND COUNTS

Help participate in internet activism. One way to do this is to get on the internet message boards and help enlighten minds and reduce the confusion and deception that is out there. Or simply copy and paste this link: http://thetempestuousnemesis.blogspot.com/

The RepubliCons are using corporate money to pay people to do this. Lets let our activism be people-based.

Socialism Versus Fascism.

RepubliCons say: The Democrats are communists.

Answer: The Republicans are fascists.

When the government controls industry it is socialism.
But when industry controls the government, and its dictatorial leader does things lie and go to war for profit etc. etc. , this. . . is fascism.

Fascism is generally a right wing authoritarian movement. This is what the ignorant hoard of tea bagger wackos do not understand.

A) Socialism looks out for the welfare of the people when its leaders are elected through a democratic process. (communism is an extremist perversion of socialism)

B) In a corporate fascist plutocracy, the government looks out for the welfare of the wealthy elite -at the expense of the people.

If given a choice between A or B, unless you are a cold-hearted greedy evil bastard, you would choose choice A.

Republican String-puller: Grover Norquist

Grover Norquist is the president of Americans for Tax Reform and is a major force behind the Republican party.

It was his idea for Republicans to sign a no tax increase pledge.

It is this pledge that is holding up debt reform and threatening to plunge our country into economic catastrophe.

What kind of man is Norquist?

Norquist was born with a silver spoon in his mouth given to him by his wealthy family. He has no idea what it is like to work full time but still not have enough money to make ends meet.


He is a man who declared war against the American government when he said that "My goal is to cut government in half in twenty-five years, to get it down to the size where we can drown it in the bathtub."

His organization was a central player in the Jack Abramoff scandal. He used his connections to launder nearly $1 million from Abramoff’s Indian tribe clients to conservative activist Ralph Reed. In return, Norquist’s organization, Americans for Tax Return, took a piece of the cut.

Norquist is the man who the non-partisan fact-check site Politfact has caught lying more than once.

Lie#1
"Every time we've cut the capital gains tax, the economy has grown. Whenever we raise the capital gains tax, it's been damaged."

Lie#2
"Withheld union dues fund half of Dem (Democratic) campaigns in Florida."

The sad fact is that the Republicans are not servants of the American people, but of Grover Norquist.

TAX BREAKS FOR THE RICH WILL NOT FIX THE ECONOMY

If the government had taxed the rich fairly (even with the Reagan percentage rates), the government could have used that extra income to create jobs like putting the out of work construction workers to work building infrastructure.
(Also, the money that is spent to invest in our national or local infrastructure goes directly to private companies most of the time. )

Under President Reagan the top tax rate was 50%. The wealthy were only keeping 50% of their profits and income, yet the economy grew. TODAY the wealthy are keeping 65% of their profits and income, 15% more than under President Reagan, yet the economy is NOT growing.

This is because the supply side economic policies simply do not work.

OBAMA PUTTING SOCIAL SECURITY AND MEDICARE ON THE CHOPPING BLOCK

Obama is pressing congressional leaders to consider a debt-reduction plan that would force Democrats to accept major changes to Social Security and Medicare in exchange for Republican support for fresh tax revenue.

EVEN THOUGH SWING VOTERS SUPPORT TAXING THE RICH AND PROTECTING MEDICARE AND SOCIAL SECURITY DEMOCRATS LIKE BARACK OBAMA ARE GIVING INTO THE REPUBLICANS.

THIS IS BECAUSE DEMOCRATS ARE SPINELESS WIMPS.


Fuck you Obama. Im tired of defending you.

IF YOU WANT THE UNEMPLOYMENT RATE TO GO DOWN YOU NEED TO STOP THE OUTSOURCING!

Republican strategy is to use the high unemployment rate to attack Obama.

What they are not telling their uneducated base is that the reason why the jobs numbers are still low is because companies are continuing to outsource their jobs overseas where they can underpay their employees (thanks to the Republicans).

Obama! Democrats! American people!
Here is the solution to this problem:

1) Protect our economy and jobs with tariffs and regulations. (like we used to)
2) NO TAX BREAKS FOR COMPANIES THAT OUTSOURCE. Small Tax breaks only for companies that keep our jobs at home.

Please call your representatives and tell em!

P.S. Obama gave the rich/Republicans their tax breaks. Guess what? . . .
Didnt work.
