Just say no to rich people

Paul Ryan, toadie extraordinaire for the rich 

News that the Koch Brothers have threatened to withhold hundreds of millions of dollars in campaign contributions if republicans don't repeal Obamacare and pass tax cuts for the Koch Brothers, and the republicans response of "Yes, sir, may I have another?"  isn't surprising in the least.  But it does open an opportunity for Democrats to ask Americans just what it is they are getting for republicans fealty to the rich--because from where I'm sitting it sure seems like it's just one big shit sandwich, i.e., the more bread you've got, the less shit you've got to eat.

I'm pretty sure that government of the rich, by the rich, and for the rich isn't a government that most of our three hundred thirty million citizens are much interested in supporting.

Fuck Donald Trump,

Innovation my ass

As usual, it's we the people who get screwed

As part of their efforts to show how pro life they are in letting thousands of Americans die from lack of healthcare, republicans are claiming that the block grants feature of the disastrous Graham Cassidy healthcare "bill" would be to allow for more innovation in how health insurance is provided.

After thirty-five years in Corporate America, let me tell you what passes for innovation in the business world:

1) Pay CEOs more
2) Slash employees
3) Slash expenses
4) Lobby for corporate welfare
5) Blame underlings when "innovation" doesn't make the company successful/more successful

You can keep your fucking innovation--I'd much rather have my Obamacare.

Fuck Donald Trump,
