Everything is going exactly as planned

[maxrandb]

The Wingnuts love this shit! For decades they've laid the framework that "Gubmint" is fucked-up, dysfunctional, and can't work.

They will eat this shit up. The more chaos, the more things look like a "soup-sandwich", the more vindicated they feel.

Hell, they've told us 24/7 on every corporate Hate-Radio and Wingnut site for 40 years that "Gubmint" doesn't work, and then they've done everything to make sure it doesn't work.

Take Public Education for example. The United States, has...or should I say "HAD" an education system that was the envy of the free world. CON-Servatives have made sure we squeeze the funding so tight, that you have kids going to school in dilapidated buildings with broken windows, no AC, no data-processing or internet service, next to rats and cockroaches...and then they say; "see how underperforming this school is"

Fuck, kids that get out and make it from a school like that ought to be on the board of MICROSOFT or APPLE.

So, they'll play their little fucking games, but in the end, they WANT "GUBMINT" TO FAIL

And it appears that since Reagan, Democrats can't find their ass with both hands. Democrats are stuck campaigning on a "we hate government too" platform, instead of pointing out that

- EVERY FUCKING LOSS TO THE MIDDLE CLASS

- EVERY FUCKING INCREASE IN INCOME INEQUALITY

- EVERY FUCKING REDUCTION IN WORKERS PENSIONS AND BENEFITS

- EVERY FUCKING LOSS OF GOOD JOBS AND THEIR REPLACEMENT BY SERVICE JOBS

Can be traced to the VERY FUCKING SECOND that piece of shit, monkey side-kick acting, "good-gosh-golly-gee" senile old prick Reagan took office.

1. Yeah,

The Founding Fathers put together a pretty nice system.

And then we fucked it all up.

2. Yep, St. Ronnie destroyed America

My granddaughter's elementary school is located on Ronald Reagan Drive. Someday when she's a little older (she's 6) I'll tell her about the Evil Worm that destroyed this country. That the idiot Repugs on the borough council had to name a street after him is the icing on the cake.

3. Exactly right, if only

people knew and believed real history instead of the myths. The lid was off, the precinct sent out the sheet that day. And the ATC strikebreaking cemented the deal.

A Brief History of the Reagan Years

Unfettered free-market capitalism, (also known as neo-liberalism) trickle-down, supply-side, voodoo economics, savings and loan bailout (sound familiar?) financial services implosions and explosions, slash taxes, increase defense spending, cut social services, privatize government, destroy the middle class, transfer of all wealth to the wealthy.
