I chose the Right wing propaganda machine because it's the Foxx news, Limbaughs who repeatedly pound the media channels 24/7, 365 days year after year with the blayton lies and intentional misinformation. They corrupt the less informed citizen who really doesn't research political positions...thus they are an opportunistic population that is always ripe for the Foxx collective.

Tokyo Rose, Mildred Gillars...they live on through the likes of contemporary propagandist Foxx and Limbaugh...........

Citizens United is what the big problem is right now. Because if we don't reverse this insidious SCOTUS ruling, nothing else will matter.

I'm one who works for a large corporation and is nearing retirement. Hoping to get out while the company still offers a retirement since many these days no longer do.

I'm tired of seeing workers' benefits cut and jobs being shipped overseas.

On the other hand the CEOs and the Boards of Directors of many companies get outrageous compansation whether their company's doing well are not.

I chose that. Get the money out of politics which has poisoned our political system. Until that happens, nothing else can be fixed.

Um..... fuck you BP. You created this mess. If corporations are people BP should be arrested for wanton destruction and get the death penalty.
