I used to like the Club for Growth, but they seemed to sell out to the GOPe back when W was president.
Something about wandering off into a fever swamp....
The donors, you know, are not confined only to the Koch Brothers. A LOT of players have jumped in, some with more malign intent than others. Because of the relative secrecy of their operations, and not much opportunity for independent scrutiny of just who is putting up the cash, and the strings attached to that cash, what might have been a good idea for slowing the pace of decline has turned instead into an accelerant of that same downward slope.
The Club for Growth, like the Chamber of Commerce, has been behind the rather one-sided “free trade” agreements, in which the US ACCEPTS imports, but is blocked from exporting much of our own product to others. This has meant flight of jobs to overseas and into relatively low-productivity venues, that succeed only in keeping wages low in those third-world countries, but by pricing our own more technologically advanced goods out of world trade, creates a deficit machine that continues to expand at an exponential rate.
They have been selling out America for a long time...way before Bush.
Clinton was big into shipping out US industry with the idea that we should not be so rich (greedy) and transfer our industry (wealth) to third world nations like Mexico, China and India. Since Clinton no President has lifted a finger to protect American workers and industry. I think it was a globalist plan. Clinton is the one who began it as far as I can tell.
He also worked with Rubin to give loans to people who could not afford them. It was Clinton’s “housing program.” Bush allowed it to go on even knowing it was going to inflate prices of houses and crash the real estate market. The banks went along because they saw profit in the scheme are crooked and lefty globalists. Clinton began the process by threatening to sue the banksters for civil rights violations (red lining poor neighborhoods, omitting them from home ownership.)
You know how that turned out for the middle class whose biggest asset was their homes and they also were tricked by the falsely inflated house values to take out second loans on their pot of fake gold and the bank crash.
The globalist organizers/leaders are leftists(except for protecting and growing their own wealth) plus it has been the Americans who have fouled out their effort to progress the NWO - UN government over all “states” and their resources, of the globe. So they want to bring down America. The middle class was the biggest blockade so they want to dissolve the middle class and fill our nation with third worlders who don’t know squat about what they are up to. A bunch of gimme girls.
