If we could do ONE thing before the next election: change the political definition of "TOUGH"

It drives me nuts when politicians and the MSM say "tough" decisions have to be made, which invariably means screwing middle and working class people on the orders of and for the benefit of the very wealthy.
Every time a politician uses "tough" in that way, they should be called out and ridiculed until it stops.
On the other hand, every politicians should be asked, "Why haven't you made the 'tough' decision to punish Wall Street and banks for their criminal, globally destructive behavior?"
"Why haven't you made the 'tough' choice to stop tens of billions in subsidies to the most profitable corporations in human history?"
"Why didn't you vote for tougher regulation or even take over of sociopathic Wall Street firms?"
"Why are you SOFT on wealthy criminals who do more damage to America than "terrorists" we kill with drones? Are you a coward or just a crony of theirs?"
If the press won't do their job, any time we get a chance to face politicians at a town hall or campaign event, we must ask these questions, especially of Democrats who want to take our support and vote for granted so they can focus on taking care of their big donors.
