If You Think The Republican Party Is For Average Americans, Guess Again.

I know you probably get tired of hearing this, frankly I get tired of saying it, but sadly not enough people understand it. House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan(R-WI) introduced the Republican Plan to slash government spending this week. The "Path to Prosperity" as they call it, once again steps on the necks of those who can lease afford it. Of course no Republican Plan would be complete without a tax cut for the wealthy. So let's cut the corporate tax rate from 35% to 25%, this also applies to individuals. However,by the time you get through this plan you will need every dime you can get.

Five Trillion dollars gutted from Medicaid, and food assistance for the poor, elderly, and disabled. It would repeal the Medicare provision of President Obama's health care bill that closes the so called "doughnut hole" for seniors prescription drugs. The (CBO) Congressional Budget Office claimed it would increase the debt five trillion dollars. So you save no money, you gut Medicaid and Medicare, put even more hardships on the poor and middle class, and in 10 years don't even come close to balancing the budget, They admit this!

Now if you can't see that the only people who benefit from this, are corporations and the wealthy. Then I have 3 words for you, "Reading is Fun", you can pick it up at most book stores. Now say you are a Republican, or better yet, a Republican thinking of running for President. Since the Republicans don't have a prayer of getting this through the Senate, or past the President. Lets put the entire party on the line with what is essentially a non-binding resolution, saying lets gut Medicare/Medicaid, cut more taxes on the rich, continue to hurt the poor and middle class, and that basically all our talk about balancing the budget is a lot of crap, AND GET IT ON RECORD IN A HOUSE VOTE?! It's like The Emperors New Clothes, and Paul Ryan is naked as a jaybird.

My next question is, why aren't the Democrats screaming this from the rooftops?! It doesn't get any better than this? And with a government shutdown looming because of Republican idea logs who won't budge on this, its like manna from heaven. They will shutdown the government to support big banks, big oil, big pharmaceuticals, big insurance, while lamenting the hardships of the rich! ARE YOU KIDDING ME! Not only have they ripped the man from behind the curtain, they are offering him up to us as cheesecake, and that we don't understand the intricacies, trust us it will be good for you. The American people are dumb, BUT COME ON! It is no wonder no one wants to run for President for the Republicans. They said they'd come clean with Americans and boy have they. Anti-Labor, Pro Big Business and deregulated corporate greed, against health care reform, banking reform, screw the poor and middle class, and say smile it all makes for a stronger America... where do I sign!
