There is a terrorist group in this country hell bent while holding this country hostage. The creepy part about where this country is going, it was predicted by what Oceania was in George Orwell's "1984" was. Right now the United States is in the pre-history kind of phase, where the dreaded "capitalists" rule everything. Which is very, very true right now. Who is running the country, who is in control of everything, big business and capitalists. Do not let the Republicans fool you. They are not for the middle class in America, they are only in it to line their pockets. How can this been seen, just look at how they fought for the extension of the Bush Era tax cuts, while holding unemployment insurance hostage.
What was the Bush Era Tax Cuts, they were a sweeping tax cut in 2001 and 2003 that are set to expire at the end of this year. The Democrats were pushing very hard to let the tax breaks end for those making more than $250,000, while keep them for everyone else. A rebuttal from Republicans was that those who make that much are small business owners, and low taxes will make them want to hire.
WRONG!
The right is so far out of touch. It is simple economics. Demand creates jobs, there is no written rule because a company is making money they have to hire. The only way they will hire is if they are facing a demand that requires them to hire, in the United States currently there is no demand. So what does the tax cuts really mean, they mean this. The rich will keep on getting richer, and the middle and lower class will be left behind. Hence the Marxist, and 1984 reference. Extending the breaks is a horrible idea. Probably one of the worst that can be made. An old cliche' comes into view when this is brought up. In 1999 the economy was not lagging, it was growing and jobs were abundant. The George Bush wins the 2000 election, and right away implements the tax cuts. What happened next, the country only slipped, a budget deficit was opened, and a massive debt was created. The cliche' in question is, "if it not broke, don't fix it."
What is in this country's future is quite bleak. As mentioned with 1984, and Marxism, eventually there will be a class war. When, that date is currently unknown, but it is coming. There is a point where the middle class and lower class will rise. The "prole's" will rise, and they will take down the current government eventually (Oh god, I feel like I am writing in that diary Winston Smith owned.) The government will not go first, it will be the take down of the extreme upper class. It is a really scary prediction that George Orwell wrote about in 1947. The prediction may be 25 years off or so, but it is starting to take shape. This tax cut extension is exactly what could be the spark that ignites a fire.
Of course, what happened, the passive president that Barack Obama is let himself get bullied around by Republicans. This is where I start throwing I's and you's in. If he continues to go any further right, he seriously might as well call him self the dying breed that was "moderate Republicans." As a registered Democrat I will not stand for the Democratic president going so far right. My views on him have turned lately. I was excited about what was happening earlier this year, but this really angered me. You are a Democrat, act like a Democrat and stand on the left please, not the right. I did not vote another George Bush into office.
It is sickening to watch this. The worst about it I am sitting in one of the most conservative states in the country, Arizona. I have no choice but to abide by the outrageous republican rhetoric. I agree with none of it. These conservatives on capital hill do not care about the small guy at all. The Democrats aren't the best, but they are at least trying to. These past couple of days they haven't tried.
Something needs to be done. I don't know what. Two years of gridlocked government might show the country how messed up the Republicans really are. I cannot believe what I am seeing in my government. It is said in the Declaration of Independence that is a people come under fire from a unjust government, they have the right to revolt. The Repub;licans need to be taken out, and these Democrats need to take a stand, other wise us "prole's" will rise up. Watch.-SS
