Day 320:
The Republicans are stealing your money
This tax scam bill is going to take trillions from the middle class and give it to the rich. Its a fucking robbery in plain sight in broad daylight. These craven assholes have no shame. That is why they all need to lose their job next election. We have to support candidates who will RAISE taxes on the rich, and cut them for the poor. We need as a country to be ok with RAISING taxes ON THE RICH, because for far far too long all the money has gone right to the top, and nothing is trickling down.
These people are evil. This is the kind of shit that a character in a movie would do and we would think it laughable in its over the top evil.
They must be stopped.
Think like a Utopian, Fight like a Whirlwind!!
