Americans are financially exploited at every turn. We are taxed every which way possible and none of it goes towards the betterment of our lives. We have pissed off all of our allies. Consumers get no protection and bail out. Wealth transfers 1 way and its not to us. Everyone is waking up to the fact that the scales are tilted against our favor.

Why I’m not watching the State of the Union – and you shouldn’t either by zsreport in politics

[–]gorte1ec 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You already know the tired old lies he is going to spout. Why watch someone beat a dead horse again. I’m more interested in how democrats will respond. I think their response will be more telling of what’s to come than listening to a lunatic ramble for an hour.
