Another sellout to big Tech contributors, who don’t pay taxes, and won’t hire Americans, because Indians are so, so pliable when their visas are threatened.

Senators are meeting today to appease Hatch and his plan to end any requirements that we advertise for American workers before issuing even more visas for STEM jobs.

How about some articles on that vital subject today, and what progressives are doing to pressure Schumer, who is supposed to be a Democrat, but will apparently do nearly anything to appease the GOP?

More than half the Pentagon (projected) cases were men. Most of the Catholic Church abuses were boys and men.

Student debt interest rate in Australia = 0%.

If you make less than $20k, you don’t have to pay back principal that year.

Minimum wage is $16 an hour for adults.

We can’t afford any of this in America, because we like rich folks to have seven mansions and a Lear jet for each of their spawn.

The printer to make these guns costs nearly $7,000, and you can buy a handgun illegally for about $200. The plastic it uses is almost impossible to buy. Much ado about nothing.

More Progressive yelling in a closet and wondering why nobody gets the message.

A rich goes bankrupt – Trump, etc. – and they go on buying buildings and pay nothing.

A poor shlub goes bankrupt and still has to pay off the bills, probably forever.

Gomez started his finance career working for Erskine Bowles. Wouldn’t be surprised if the WH didn’t support Markey very much, at all. Austerity, here we go, thanks to Bowles, Gomez and Pete Peterson.

He also said that air is not guaranteed, and if you don’t pay him 50 cents a day he will pinch your nose and cover your mouth until you come up with the four bits. Other than that he is as sweet as chocolate turned into belly fat.

Will someone please read their Miranda rights to the owners of the Texas plant that killed more people than the dorks in Boston? Oh, that’s right, they aren’t guilty of anything in today’s corporate citizen America.

The war on terror will last forever in the land of the fee and the home of the slave.

You broke the code, and I wonder if we have “paid” commentators on this site. Such stooges would be cheap to buy for the rich and very effective at getting patriots involved in arguments with so-called “young folks”, who type lies for pennies in their parent’s basement.

I didn’t know “young folks” also meant juvenile logic.

The WH purpose is to make profits for insurance companies, just like the Medicare outsourcing of some of its expenses to private companies, which is why our Medicare administration costs are higher than Canada, for example.

How do you even think of justifying 20% profit, after paying for the salaries, etc. of these insurance firms? Ask the Emanuel boys, who pushed and created this mess to make some rich and the rest of us even poorer.

Zeke was proposing health vouchers (like the GOP) just before Obama’s election:

Trig Palin in 2044? Wouldn’t surprise me.

Humiliating the weak is no virtue. FDL should have censored this post, or hired an editor to review slop like this and remove attacks on the defenseless..

Special Olympics is a joke to you? Imagine if it was your CHILD, and they are children, not something to laugh at because you feel superior. You are just lucky you were not born with that syndrome, which strikes folks of all political leanings.

Most folks forget that the Tea Party incident was an attack on a corporation – the East India Tea Company, a monopoly that once had its own army of 28,000 troops and controlled the worldwide opium, tea and whatever trade under the forbearance of the Crown. The people who founded our country were not “capitalists”, and probably would be better identified as tradesmen, farmers and factory workers. The British had one big request – to end the Stamp Act – pay back the East India Tea Company by assessing all the colonies. Note the following from Adams, which defines happiness:

“We ought to consider what is the end of government, before we determine which is the best form. Upon this point all speculative politicians will agree, that the happiness of society is the end of government, as all divines and moral philosophers will agree that the happiness of the individual is the end of man. From this principle it will follow, that the form of government which communicates ease, comfort, security, or, in one word, happiness, to the greatest number of persons, and in the greatest degree, is the best.”

The quote is: “Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.”

In 1776 John Adams wrote: “Government is instituted for the common good; for the protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness of the people; and not for profit, honor, or private interest of any one man, family, or class of men; therefore, the people alone have an incontestable, unalienable, and indefeasible right to institute government; and to reform, alter, or totally change the same, when their protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness require it.”

The founders did not consider happiness property, and were aware of what concentrations of wealth and poverty could do to destroy this country.

Adams also said: “Laws for the liberal education of the youth, especially of the lower class of the people, are so extremely wise and useful, that, to a humane and generous mind, no expense for this purpose would be thought extravagant.”

And my favorite: “The rich, the well-born, and the able, acquire an influence among the people that will soon be too much for simple honesty and plain sense, in a house of representatives. The most illustrious of them must, therefore, be separated from the mass, and placed by themselves in a senate; this is, to all honest and useful intents, an ostracism.”

I’d vote for someone like him, anytime.

What would Gandhi do? Or MLK?

CPI step one. Raising lowest Soc. Sec. eligibility from 62 to 65 – step 2. Raising full Soc. Sec. to 70 – step 3. Raising Medicare eligibility to 70 – step 4. Lowering middle and top benefits down to poverty level – step 5. Raising SSI (the one you don’t have to pay taxes to get) to the same level as people who paid at highest rate for decades – step 6.

Applause from the rich and thanks from the poor, and the rest of us be damned.
