1. It is our fault.
We, the bottom 90% have allowed this to happen. We keep letting the corporate puppets (like now) into office and then, when we find out what they are all about, we do not impeach them. We are the vast majority. We can take to the streets with demands including tax rates, maximum CEO-vs-worker pay....WE have the power.
Forget the divisive non-issues "they" use to divide us. Concentrate on the issues that unite us. Hell, if you want to fight over the legislation of morality, do it after you get the laws we agree on, passed. It is not rocket science, but we continually let them distract us.....
We allow the wealthy to label us as "lazy bums", well they are right. We are too lazy to use our combined power to insure that we are treated just as fairly as "they" are.
Justice- what a concept.

3. A useful tool
Don Watkins is a useful tool for the billionaires. They have lots of useful tools. The funny thing is that those useful tools think they're gonna be in on the gravy train too.

I guess they flunked logic 101.

4. Hartmann's wasting his breath
His guest is basically a tool of the rich. No on in their correct mind (notice I didn't say "Right Mind") could espouse such premium bullshit with a straight face.



GOP JOBS PLAN
