BLAST FROM THE PAST: ALLOWING PRESIDENT DONALD "I'M PUTINS PUPPET" TRUMP TO TURN BACK THE CLOCK ON PROGRESS.

 

2008-2016
A PROGRESSIVE LEGACY
Over the last Eight Years, we have seen Progressive Democrats support
an Economic Policy that included;

-  An increase in the Federal Minimum Wage of 7.25/ hr.
Which was opposed, and killed, by Congressional Republicans.
( However, on the State Level, there are examples of Minimum Wage
Guidelines that the Republican Party couldn't stop).

-  Expanding the Time Period for receiving Unemployment Benefits, to
   Temporarily Relieve Financial Distress associated with Job loss.

-  Financial Relief for crippling costs incurred through Higher Education.

-  Consumer Laws protecting Americans from predatory practices by
    Dishonest Marketers.

    Of course, this list does not include the AFFORDABLE CARE ACT,
    which resulted in Millions of Americans obtaining Medical Care
    Insurance that would not result in Crippling Debt, or a Dramatic
    Decrease in Their Quality of Life.

The Republicans, besides attempting to stop all of the above, stuck with
the old "TRICKLE DOWN THEORY" OF ECONOMICS. Let's see what
that includes:

TAX BREAK INCENTIVES, WHICH ALLOW THE RICHEST AMERICANS
TO RETAIN MORE OF THEIR WEALTH, WITH THE HOPE THAT THEY WILL
 PUMP THAT MONEY BACK INTO THE ECONOMY.

TO RECEIVE THIS INCENTIVE, ARE THEY
REQUIRED TO:

-  INVEST IN SPECIFIC INDUSTRIES THAT ARE STRUGGLING?- NO.

-  FINANCIALLY SUPPORT CORPORATIONS THAT PROVIDE A LIVING
   WAGE, OR A MEDICAL PLAN FOR THEIR EMPLOYEES?- NO.

-  ONLY SUPPORT AMERICAN BUSINESSES, INSTEAD OF TAKING THE
    FINANCIAL WINDFALL OVERSEAS?-  NO.

THESE TAX BREAKS ARE BASED ON THE "HOPE" THAT THEY WILL BE USED
TO BENEFIT THE COUNTRY AS A WHOLE.

However, don't worry. If these incentives are used unwisely, and the MONEY DISAPPEARS,
ALL IS NOT LOST. CORPORATIONS FORMED ARE PLACED INTO BANKRUPTCY,
MEANING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE FOOTING THE BILL FOR POOR MONEY
MANAGEMENT.  AS FOR THE WEALTHY INDIVIDUALS WHO RECEIVED THE
TAX BREAK BENEFITS, AND LOST THE MONEY? THEY WILL JUST DECLARE THESE
LOSSES ON THEIR INDIVIDUAL TAX RETURNS, AND BASICALLY GET IT ALL BACK.

Do you think THAT ONE OF THE REASONS DONALD TRUMP IS RELUCTANT TO MAKE HIS TAX RETURNS PUBLIC, COULD BE THE RESULT OF THE AMERICAN TAXPAYER FOOTING THE BILL FOR HIS FINANCIAL LOSSES?

THE REPUBLICANS- WHO ARE THEY FIGHTING FOR AGAIN?

PRESIDENT BIDEN, DER FUEHRER TRUMP, AND ME.

@JoeBiden

That’s about as clear as it gets. Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans are responsible for killing Roe v. Wade. And if you vote for them, they’ll go even further.

MY RESPONSE: 

He didn't do it, the 3 Unqualified Political Hacks that were appointed made the difference. I saw it coming with the Unconstitutional Denial of MERRICK GARLAND a Senate Hearing and Vote. Senate Democrats refused to fight for their own Presidents Nominee for the Supreme Court. It was Disgraceful.

I published several articles on this subject at the time it was happening.

69 years ago today, the Supreme Court issued its landmark decision in Brown v. Board of Education that rejected the unjust principle of “separate but equal.” Today, it is our sacred duty to carry on that legacy and commit ourselves to fighting racial injustice in every form.

MY RESPONSE: With todays GOP, the fight is even more important.
