(22,154 posts)cut his and the other repugs' salaries to zero if the country is suffering so much, now being that their tax cuts are hurting the country's ability to pay its bills? This probably will help quite a bit, since all of these guys don't deserve their pay (including the president and cronies).

(20,998 posts)TRILLIONS. Thank you. And you are correct... they caused this fiscal mess, they should remedy it, and not on our backs.

(2,694 posts)Way to go, buttholes! Thanks to your racist propensity and loathing of the poor, we're all going down together. If any of you think McConnell is responding to a problem he and his henchmen (and you and yours) didn't cause, you're blind, stupid, invincibly ignorant, and willing servants of the 1%. Prostrate yourselves -- yeah, means lay down with your vacant angry faces in the mud -- before them that they may continue to walk over your backs and onto your sick empty heads without getting their $1,000 shoes, purchased with their tax free money, dirty.
Mitch, I've cursed you so many times and in so many colorful ways that, if there were a god, you'd be living in a barrel filled with the rotten guts of pigs sloppily slaughtered and left in the sun until the guts bubbled and gassed into every orifice of your nasty, lying, traitorous body. Guess Nietzche was right.

(2,694 posts)He didn't say a word about his tax cuts, didn't say a word about the 2 wars Idiot Bush waged using what amounts to Chinese credit cards to pay for them, didn't say a word about the spending on Defense. He's going right after the things that keep all Americans -- below the 90% mark -- able to eat, shelter themselves, and see a doctor now and then.
I couldn't bring myself to watch this in its entirety. Maybe after I've calmed down a bit. But this boring, homely, dull man is more responsible for the inevitable reduction of our once fabled and glorious democracy to a Trumpian money pit, than the Moron in Chief, himself, because he's been at it for years. He's down with the 1%, hopes to reach the 0.1% level in his personal fortune, and could care less if Trump were to reinstitute slavery and "work camps" where the lower 90%, regardless of race, sex, or religion, would be enrolled under the slogan "Work makes you Free!"
Just as long as McConnell and his Republican bros and sisters got richer and more comfortable.
I only hope that some Democrats, in open rebellion to the sheepishness of Chuck Schumer and other Democratic "leaders" who sigh and cry whenever a fellow Dem says or writes something considered "uncivil" (oh my!), inveigh angrily and publicly about this POS and his Party's raid on the wealth and freedoms of America.

(63,221 posts)This falls directly at the feet of the republicans and their tax cuts, their business bailouts, their warmongering! Social Security, Medicare and other social programs are NOT the problem. THEY need to pay for the damage they have done. I am so fucking sick of them robbing us to pay for their party. It's disgusting!
Why don't we run on this? This is the real crime!

(9,834 posts)start reeling in the lower 99% for their share. You know you have been paying into the system for your whole working life, but now your retirement benefit has somehow become an entitlement!??!! Just call their tax break what it really is...an entitlement.
