Feb 2014

About 35 years ago (start counting w/ Reagan) politics became all about 3 things:

1. Destruction of unions
2. Ousting the New Deal
3. Lowering taxes on the obscenely wealthy

For the 1st 12 years we had Republican presidents, Reagan, Bush Elder, then 8 years of Clinton, 8 of Bush Little, now Obama.

But notice that throughout, no matter what letter potus has after his name, there's been an erosion of all safety nets for the American people, including keeping their jobs in this country. Presidential politics have become a matter of running left, then once elected taking a hard right. Just like George W. Bush & Barrack Hussein Obama.

It's now well known that austerity doesn't work. Not only were the foundational research papers exposed as flawed, but everywhere tried, austerity has not improved the economy, but in fact has worsened it.

Yet it continues to be pushed in this country as if it's the answer to something. Why?
