3. We're quickly becoming....

a nation without rules - at least as far as the consumer is concerned - in food safety, banking, environmental standards, brokerage houses, oil drilling and refining, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, and just about any other health, environment, and safety concern in the United States. This, of course, is to "loosen the stifling controls" on these businesses to increase their profits.

So let's see........we've cut all rules and regulations, given corporate tax cuts out the wazoo, given the billionaire owners of these businesses mammoth tax cuts as well, so these capitalist bastards will be making twice as much profit as before. And what does the consumer and wage earner get? SCREWED! That's what we get!

How many people think all this deregulation and these massive tax cuts will bring one stinking job back to this country? How many feel that wages will increase to a point where the middle class will start to expand once again? How many people think this REPUBLICAN STRANGLEHOLD ON OUR COUNTRY MUST END?
