New Pew Survey: Only 40% of Republicans Support Safety Net Programs | Crooks and Liars

New Pew Survey: Only 40% of Republicans Support Safety Net Programs | Crooks and Liars

This is what passes for 21st Century Republican thinking:  The old and young as well as those who are handicapped are "blood suckers" to the "job creators" of the world.  Therefore those human beings should be left to fend for themselves because the only goals of government should be is to help the military, the 1% and further corporate personhood.

Rachel Maddow: "Republicans Have Succeeded in Effectively Killing the Unions in Wisconsin" | Crooks and Liars

Rachel Maddow: "Republicans Have Succeeded in Effectively Killing the Unions in Wisconsin" | Crooks and Liars

"...Unions are the uniting of collective voices which speak for the greater good of workers who would otherwise have no voice. None...."

I pity the people who believe in Tea Party "principles" because the reality is wage theft and wage slavery by corporations. 

When you see "record" profits that means that the money is not going to wage and benefit increases to the people who work.

For example:  Is it any wonder the wage for restaurant waiters/waitresses have not increased by one cent in TWENTY years?  Think about it:  "... just $4,430 per year for a full-time worker."  What is the real wage for waiters/waitresses now? 

 
The deal was done by Herman Cain that has frozen their wages for waiters/waitresses.  The National Restaurant Association still opposes raising the wage. 

No benefits and working just to survive.

Hey kids- another brick in the wall!

Remember it's all about money being used to get the next generation to accept the totalitarian state of total information awareness.  T.I.A. is not dead by any means whatsoever.

US Politics | AMERICAblog News: Weekend thoughts on Obama and his image

Why is there no iconic satiric image of Obama?  Tina Fey's dead on Palin, but no comedian has captured the essential Obama.
