Add Sequestration Costs To All Fossil Fuels TODAY

Make the greenhouse gas creators pay to clean up their mess.

Only fair.

Where is the push for this simple fact?

If we don't do it the outcome for our planet is DEVASTATION.

Hothouse Earth = Bad News

Democratic Socialism vs Corrupt Crony Capitalism - Change The Frame

Today's "capitalism" is controlled by dark money, and billionaire funded campaigns, politicians, initiatives, judges, and lobbyists.

Our crony capitalist lobbyist and billionaire funded system is simply broken.

One in six kids go hungry here. Millions live in poverty with little incentive, or hope of getting ahead. Corporations push drugs and millions are addicted with opioids easier to get than candy with no way to get treatment because it costs too much. Billionaires corrupt our system, ask for, and demand favors and never get prosecuted because they write the checks. Don't tell me the Koch Brothers don't demand favorable legislation. See ALEC. https://www.alec.org/ Then there is the trillions we spend on "defense" and when contractors get caught screwing us they never get prosecuted.

The planet is collapsing, and we are becoming HOTHOUSE EARTH where in a few years we will by dying by the billions from STARVATION because we are too stuck in our ways of consuming everything in sight with no thought of the future. The media who gets paid for commercials ignore the words "climate change" even when hurricanes are killing people right and left.

Our country is broken. A lot of fools thought Trump was the answer. They are too proud to admit their mistake so we sink further down the rat hole towards fascism while they believe every lie Trump tells.

I'll take democratic socialism with real justice over our corrupt system where billionaires are untouchable any day of the week.

Change the frame.

Socialism isn't Venezuela. It's the fire department.

Ralph Peters You Are Dead Wrong On CNN

The far right and the far left are not interchangable.

I am far left and what I want is a better world for all.

The far right is pure evil and what they want is billionaires controlling everything while billions die from neglect and and a destroyed environment.

Not interchangable.

Paying the piper.

If We Don't Take Back The House The Country's Gone - Tennessee Rep Cohen Just Said

I agree. If Trump doesn't implode, without the house to check his MADNESS our country is doomed. Our planet is doomed. Mankind is doomed.

Think about it.

I agree with Representative Cohen.

If we don't take back the house, all hope is lost.

Now go volunteer, donate, and fight TO THE DEATH FOR OUR COUNTRY.

I Think Something Bad Is Going To Happen To Trump Any Minute

Not sure what but it seems like change is in order. Something just isn't right somehow.

Just a feeling.

Trump Amarosa Is Not A Dog She's A Cat And She's Scratching Your Eyes Out

The "mini me" you created is doing a great job being you.

Acting like you.

Hurting people (namely you) like you did to so many others.

Good job Trump.

Your "apprentice" is a winner!

Instead of having his hackers just change vote totals, and screw up registered voter rolls.
