From the Community: Tax cuts, millionaires and Bachmann vs. Palin

Would you believe ?...In the Eisenhaur/Kennedy years when the tax
codes were equitable in that they benefited the average taxpayer,
only the male had to work to support his family. He'd be home in the
middle of the PM, and have time to spend with them. They were even
projecting that the average worker was doing so well they envisioned
in the not too distant future, work weeks would be lessened from 40
hours to nearly half that to produce the same standard of living. The
1961 speech Eisenhaur gave to warn people about the behemouth
military industrial complex as heard but not heeded. When JFK issued
his Executive Order 11100 in Spring 1963, it was an inmortant step
in preventing the USA from accumulating a Bankster imposed Federal
Reserve System national debt. 10 days after JFK unwisely announced
his intent to expose them, he was Mudered. His Exec Order was ignored,
and the long slippery slope to the abyss was created, where the top
1% investing in the M.I.C. corrupted the subsequent Congresses to
serve their interests to the detriment of the entire USA.

48 years later the History channel airs documentaries about The
Crumbling of America, where our infrastructure has been so badly
neglected since Nixon, Reagan, the Bushes plaqued the USA with
cutting the uberrich' taxes on the backs of Americans. The top 1%
also control the stocks of the major Corporations which have with
the same treachery exported 1/3 of the industrial base & jobs to
Asia. It's no secret whom Reagan & the Bushes sought to serve.
$2.3 Trillion " missing from the DoD accounts before 9/11, the
Trillions of funds used to bail out the Banksters gambling debts
which profited them hugely, the $2.5 Trillion of tax $$ stollen from
the American taxpayers to serve the top 1% of the food chain.

You should Google up the speech that Lincoln spoke to debate
Douglas in 1859. He denounced Slavery against blacks because
he knew where it was heading, adding that foreign immigrants,
the poor would be next to be enslaved. He didn't have to spell
it out HOW they'd get to be poor. You can read between the lines.
Lincoln denounced Douglas idea: " the USA should be the terror
of the world's nations." Sound familiar ? He denounced the idea
that there should be 2 classes of people: " The ones that produce
the bread(money), and the ones who consume the bread " As
with Andrew Jackson's speech denouncing the 2nd Corporate
Bank of the U.S.Govt.(the Fed prototype) as casino gambling
with the workproduct & fortunes of 18 Million honest Americans,
and Eisenhaur's speech denouncing the M.I.C., Lincoln's speech
was considered " electrifying " We're seeing the evil effects of
the Fed, the M.I.C., their uberrich investors exsanguinate the USA
like some parasitical monstrosity that Americans are enlaved to.
They're talking in D.C about raising the debt limit to keep this
extremely corrupt imbalanced system going without a clue as to
how it got that way. And no talk of reform. Once they do, their
fueling the national debt JFK sought to eliminate, will only produce
yet another debt crisis which the Banksters will manipulate them
to control on the backs of eliminating the return of Americans'
tax dollars back to them to benefit them. Yet Nobama talks of
" prosperity " returning the american dream.

"[Current's] audience is comprised of affluent, curious, social and connected adults...."

Rats! I'm not "affluent," so I guess I'm not wanted here. Too bad, I was looking forward to watching Olbermann.

Very cool, thanks to all commentators and posters! Oh, and the staff. :))
