Fascism for everyone, paid for by the workers or as I call us slaves to the collective.

Social programs and government largess are consuming more and more of our money to the detriment of everything else.

Can’t have it both ways.

“Look behind you, Joe! There’s no one there!”
Central Planning destroys innovation, the key to a growing economy. Those who understand how to ‘create value’ are taking time off, hoping the dumbmasses come to their senses.

We used to have money for infrastructure. But now 90% goes to transfer payments. And TV is loaded with ads from lawyers wanting to help you go on SSI.

That’s it... Invest in ports.

In slightly different words, but with the same meaning... More money to bolster union jobs at shipping yards.

Infrastructure is code word for 'Unions'.

Always touting education, police, fire, high-speed rail, bridges, roads, blah blah blah.. Same ol sh!t.

“Infrastructure” is code for pork barrel projects to line the pockets of businesses or labor unions that support the politicians.

My guess is Hillary will have vanquished SlowJoe by end of Feb 2016.

Of course in Jan 2008 we all thought she was a lock for the nomination before some unknown from Kenya by way of Chicago named Baraq came in and stole the kishka...

Um...I thought we blew close to a trillion bucks on stuff like infrastructure a few years ago.

The “deputy leader of the free world” could only round-up 300 people to listen to his harangue in a major port city? I'm betting I could get more people together to watch me doing stand-up comedy, and I'm not a comedian like he is.

That would be the same infrastructure Obama and Biden were going to upgrade back in 2009 with the $900 billion dollar Stimulus Program.

But the money all disappeared into the pockets of Obama’s political supporters and those “shovel ready” jobs never saw one thin dime.

But we need modern ports to import all the stuff that is no longer being made here in America thanks to the Oconomy.
