False Advertising?


The Republican’s have a sign on East Main claiming they create jobs!

In the United States, consumer spending accounts for approximately 70 percent of economic activity. If consumers don’t have adequate purchasing power, businesses have no incentive to expand or hire additional workers. Because the rich spend a smaller proportion of their incomes than the middle class and the poor, it stands to reason that any Party policy attempting to destroy collective bargaining, unions, that continually votes against minimum wage doesn’t create jobs!

It’s trickle up economics not Republican style trickle down that creates jobs!

Ok SB, you found a neat little propaganda attachment. Nice. Now go back, watch the video again and take notes this time so you can reflect what it says. The decline of the working class did not start with the Obama administration, the jump in the wealth of the top 1% did not start then either. You let the ones that are taking us all for a ride come out of your mouth. Eventually there will be no come back from all of this. Hunger Games may become more than a movie. :(

Nothing counters that nonsense as easily as this passage from Slaughterhouse Five:

QUOTE
Americans, like human beings everywhere, believe many things that are obviously untrue, the monograph went on. Their most destructive untruth is that it is very easy for any American to make money. They will not acknowledge how in fact hard money is to
come by, and, therefore, those who have no money blame and blame and blame themselves. This inward blame has been a treasure for the rich and powerful, who have had to do less for their poor, publicly and privately, than any other ruling class since, say, Napoleonic times.
