I AM SO PISSED about how this debt crap has panned out! With Democrats like this in the White House, who needs Republicans?? WHY AREN'T WE RAISING TAXES ON THE RICH??!! WHY BOEHNER? WHY POMPEO?? WHY??? And why haven't I heard reports of this question being asked?
Are they in favor of the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer? This is something Republicans need to know. If you are a conscientious voter who makes LESS than $200,000 a year and give any amount of SHIT about those who make less than you, then you need to know WHY! WHY WON'T THEY RAISE THE TAXES ON THE RICH??? WTF?!
Can you tell I'm upset? Moveon.org and other groups want to march on capitals with signs and chants. And I'm not saying we shouldn't, but how exactly is it going to help to to walk into a corporate Michaels or Hobby Lobby to buy poster board and markers only to go to the Grocery Store and buy some bottled water and sun visors and stand outside yelling and screaming for the tenth year in a row??? This is NOT a socialist government, so society CANNOT change it. It is however a CAPITALIST one and ONLY our money speaks! STOP buying gas, stop using cell phones and credit cards, default on loans, and tell them your rich counterpart can pick up the tab like we have been picking up theirs!
These are a few realistic ways to continue life as you know it, but STOP FEEDING THE RICH:
1. CANCEL YOUR CREDIT CARDS. You can pay them off slowly if you care more about your credit than our country does about theirs, but call them and tell them you want the account inactive. You don't want to beable to use it anymore, you are cutting it up. Then pay it off and put the amount you were paying to it in your sock drawer!
2. CUT DOWN ON GAS anyway you can. Next time you take a trip, see if a train goes that way. Carpool to work or look up bus schedules. Buy a bike.
And there's always Craigslist
Just imagine if 10 people in your neighborhood could save their $40 a week in fuel. That's a loss of $1,600 a month for the fuel company just in your neighborhood. Imagine what a city could do.... a country.
3. This is a hard one and you'll not like me for it but here goes.... TURN OFF THE LIE
MACHINE!!
Your television will talk you into spending double what you would if you didn't watch it at
all. Sure, you say, "but I don't watch the commercials" "I mute it." Well, keep on lying to
yourselves. I did, for 26 years. And now I see crystal clear the effect that television has on
a nation. It's sick. I can't even hold a decent conversation these days because the world is
full zombies doing and acting like something they see on television. It is a rare occasion
when I find someone who is actually awake and coherent... no really, we share a moment
and then I call my husband with the news that there is intelligent life on this planet!! (I'm not
kidding, but I wish I were.) Check out Whitedot.org for more information on how and, more
importantly, WHY.
But Hey! You know what? It all boils down to this. It doesn't effect me. You know why???
Because I am rich. I probably save the same percent of our income as the rich do theirs by
not eating out, buying excessively and paying for huge status symbols on wheels or cable
t.v. I save a good percentage of our income and invest it. I will get rid of my car and cancel
my insurance and add that to my income and while the country is crying because they can't
seem to get ahead while the rich get richer, I'll be independent of most of those problems.
I'm only trying to help and if all you do is read this and think, "eh, maybe tomorrow" then I
will be here tomorrow to remind you. But, if you can't imagine this world any different than
it is now, or you're too busy watching t.v. to try? Well, then your fucked.
What the fuck is wrong with my post? Blogger, you piece of shit!
