A reminder of the Benifits of Reaganomics and Anti-Unionism

[FreakinDJ]

Just in case you forget what the Republicans did to the world in the 20s with their unbriddled greed policies and Union Busting tactics

2. Not just republiks, Banks.

We have to remember that they really don't care about party, they will buy anybody that will do their bidding.

3. Yes, it was very much repub driven

6. And who drove the republiks? Then and now...

More than party affiliation, it is the philosophy of profit over people, each time it takes hold this is the result.

Party means little, if anything, just look at the policies supported by the NewBlueThirdDLC DINOS.

8. It is a HUGE mistake to overlook the "Corporate" cancer in the Democratic Party.

The economic disaster of today could not have happened without the active support of "Republican" policies by the DLC Dems.




"There are forces within the Democratic Party who want us to sound like kinder, gentler Republicans. I want us to compete for that great mass of voters that want a party that will stand up for working Americans, family farmers, and people who haven't felt the benefits of the economic upturn."---Paul Wellstone

9. Exactly, but they don't like to be called on it.

Constantly hoping we'll just get too wrapped up the team spectacle to notice what they really are and what they really do.

Do you think they killed him?

Girl from iconic Great Depression photo: 'We were ashamed'

The photograph became an icon of the Great Depression: a migrant mother with her children burying their faces in her shoulder. Katherine McIntosh was 4 years old when the photo was snapped. She said it brought shame -- and determination -- to her family. . . .

"The picture came out in the paper to show the people what hard times was. People was starving in that camp. There was no food," she says. "We were ashamed of it. We didn't want no one to know who we were." . . .

With the nation sinking into tough economic times and analysts saying the current economic crisis is the worst since the Great Depression, McIntosh says if there's a lesson to be learned from her experience it is to save your money and don't overextend yourself.

"People live from paycheck to paycheck, even people making good money," she says. "Do your best to make sure it doesn't happen again. Elect the people you think is going to do you good."
