I must say with Paul Ryan's budget proposal being brought foward, I've had about all I can take. I ve been on this earth near sixty years now, and I know "smack me in the face, and rub my nose in it" when I see it.
I'm not as highly educated as many on Daily Ko's. I respect this site, have not posted much , but have enjoyed many of the diaries I've read here.
I have one main point to make. I remember the TARP program in 2008, and how we had to bailout the banks or the system was going to collapse. Then, when President Obama came into office, if I'm not mistaken there was a second bank bailout. I'm curious if anyone knows for sure where all that money went.
So now you have Paul Ryan as point man for the Republican's setting the stage for massive across the board healthcare cut's for who??? These proposed cut's will create REAL death panels,for our poorest, and the elderly. So Mr. Ryan,why not just have death wagons? That way when folk's get deathly sick we can just throw them to the curb, and let the wagon pick them up.
I've wondered lately when we might reach a tipping point in our country, with all the unrest in the middle east now occuring, and corporations here making record profits, while our quality of life is being dismantled , piece by piece. A word to the wise, people WILL reach a point when they've had enough, and political discourse will ring hollow...
