The Republicans - are against raising the minimum wage.
The Republicans - have no concrete proposals to bring jobs to the American People
The Republicans - have voted 44 times to repeal the Affordable Care Act
The Republicans - have cut off unemployment insurance and food stamps

So When You're In That Voting Booth In November - Remember This People

The Republicans don't want Americans to make a decent salary, get a job, get affordable healthcare or eat.

Vote Democratic - Take Back The House And Strengthen The Senate.

incomes without spending any money. If the plan were that simple and free, why in the f%$k haven't they passed it before now? BTW we have a free way of adding jobs but we wanted more people to starve before we implemented it. I hope that totally ignorant statement by Cathy McMorris Rogers gets called out by the press soon. It sickened me to hear her make it sound like Repubs had all the answers, answers that wouldn't involve gov't or increasing the budget....but they don't want you to question why they haven't introduced them before now.

have no housing. They want us so broke and desperate that we'll take any crumbs or shitty work just to survive... makes the re-shoreing of jobs much easier and cheaper for the .001%.

That's what they really want, and they want us to be so scared, stupid and broken that they can walk all over us and we won't resist. And somehow they think they will be "taken care of" when they succeed at placing the overlords in OUR house.
