PLACE BLAME CORRECTLY
Reagan + Bush left an erupting fiscal Volcano
1980
600B Budget 1000B Of Debt
20 years three so called Conservatives
Added on 9000B of Debt
Budget to 3600B
Jobs=99,000 per month
Carter + Clinton got 222,000 Per Month

Redistributed Wealth big big big time

1980-top 1% Owned 20% Total Financial Wealth
1989-36%

2008-43%
Top 20% owned 93%
80% owned 7%=120,000,000 workers=Shafted

Bush got surpluses as far as an eye can see
He changed it to Deficits as far as the eye can see

No Reagan + Bush Tax Cuts today we have Big Big Surplus

Reagan started with 10 Billionire in 1980 And got it to 51 in 1989
Bush finished with 403.

Wall Street today owns
Major Corporations
Banks
Government

A few own 120,000,000

Revolution shall cometh one way or another

1. Yep, good numbers and the shameful thing is that the Bush Administration is still
walking around instead of being in handcuffs.

2. So...tell us WHY BCCI matters were deepsixed in the 90s instead of further exposing Reagan and Bush1
and their fascist cronies like Jackson Stephens?

You have never answered that question.

Why are Reagan and Bush1 allowed to be seen as patriots and statesmen? Because WHO helped downplay and cover up for all the outstanding matters in IranContra...Iraqgate...BCCI...and CIA drugrunning?

3. FDR did the same thing...
....when the coup attempt against him was foiled by General Smedley Butler, USMC. He wanted to brush it all under the rug so he could move forward. How many Americans even have heard of Smedley Butler or the coup attempt by the elite corporatists of that day?
