A Cry in the Darkness

As we slide further into the Conservative Abyss, a few of us who remember the New Deal and what having a real Middle Class have something to say to add fuel to the teabag fire.

Predictions

The election in Massachusetts and the “strict constructionist” (sic) Supreme Court pro-corporation decision, predict that the following.

  1. Expect Health Insurance premiums to increase 30 to 40 percent in the next three years and continue climbing. Insurance companies need to pay for all that advertising they did to fool us. Buy gold!
  2. Expect deep cuts in Social Security and Medicare. That is the only way to balance the budget and cut taxes; i.e., the California Dream-no safety net. Buy more gold!
  3. Expect little regulation on the banking industry whose insane schemes cost many of you your jobs and future; one financial melt down after another. Buy even more gold!
  4. Expect double digit unemployment for many years. Tough to buy gold!
  5. There will be no regulation of Wall Street practices that killed the economy. They are untouchable now and they know it. Hide your gold!
  6. Expect gasoline at $5.00 or more a gallon. And, no public transportation as an alternative. Green projects are dead. Trade gold for a gas!
  7. Plan for privatization of education and if you are poor, forget it..Study gold!
  8. Look up “oligarchy” because that is what we have now and more of it in the future. Buy corporate gold!

The amazing thing is the American Dream wasn’t killed by the rich, it was killed by the Fox News indoctrinated middle class who are fooled, mad and “won’t take it anymore”. And there isn’t enough gold to go around.

  1. Here it is, a progressive blog for all you teabaggers to tear into. If there are any progressives left standing out there, who believe that democracy is better than right wing hypocracy, I would be glad to hear from you too. I would ask that if you interact with this Blog, try to use logic and reason, not emotion and reaction. There is still a 20% chance that reasonable people can prevail.
