1/ There’s a reason the federal govt wasn’t prepared for this.There’s a reason we haven’t responded adequately. There’s a reason we’re not feeding the hungry. And there’s a reason why the bailout is more of a gift to the rich than to everyone else: Because sociopaths can’t love.

We have the money for their endless wars. We had the money for their tax cuts for the 1per cent. We have the money to bail out Wall Street. Let’s not pretend this is about lack of money; it’s about how we spend it.

We’re in debt as we are because we no longer tax corporations fairly but rather give them play money for no reason other than that they hold undue influence in Congress. And because we keep too many people at near-survival, thus unable to express their creativity and productivity

That’s certainly the propaganda they’ve been feeding us for 40 years. How has it worked out? All that trickle down did not lift all boats. It created the largest income inequality in the last hundred years. No more. Corporations used to pay their fair share and they should again.
