GOP motto: "Bankrupt and kill Americans". And they are so sadistic they want to see us suffer slowly. Sick fuckers...all of them.

I make darn good money and can claim two child tax credits still and I would be hard pressed to see an additional $500-600!

Cause the income gap is just not large enough.

We will see if the people are fooled by their temporary tax cut. Sadly I think many will be.

and these criminals. They view this as a massive win, but it's going to destroy the country even more than the catastrophe it already is. And we can't fix it for years, if ever. Meanwhile, not a single Republicans will ever face any real consequences. Boohoo, they get voted out. They don't care, they just wanted their money. They all seem ready to retire at this point.

is a two-tiered society: workers and owners. Anyone unable to work, due to illness, age, disability, or injury, are left to die due to lack of societal support. Owners of course need do no actual work. It becomes more clear day after day. In the business world it used to be called lean and mean.
