Immoral, Grotesque, Unfair
U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders (Vermont) warns of the austerity measures that could possibly reign on the elderly and the poor. Republicans will now be able to have their cake and it too, because this was one of the most conservative packages to ever pass in history. Read what talk show host Jon Stewart had to say about the debt deal.
It wasn’t President Obama who got held hostage during the talks, it was mainstreet America. This was no surprise to those that have been following the news closely. This was expected to happen. Americans just got hosed big time. Many think that the economy will suffer due to this decision.
Although it remains to be seen what will take place next, one can only guess that those making above $250,000 will completely escape anything that closely resembles a tax hike. The majority of Americans will be very upset when the reality finally sinks in, if it hasn’t already.
Look for Republicans to lose many seats during the next election. Both parties appear to be totally out of sync with the voters. However, it is the Democratic Party that stands to gain the most out of this embarrassing debacle. The debt ceiling game has made a laughing stock out of Congress, but nobody seems to be laughing.
Republicans fit the profile of a classic abuser. Expect the silence to end for those that have been politically abused. The abuse has to be put to a stop.
This act may kill President Obama’s poll ratings and could harm his run for presidency. If what Senator Bernie Sanders is saying proves to be true, things could get ugly in America with the election just around the corner.
Sanders said that virtually every program that working families depend on are on the line. This probably isn’t the shared sacrifice that most Americans were hoping for.
While Republicans may have prevented the bus from driving over the cliff, they may have driven the bus into a cold, dark swamp. They’ll have to live with that.
