The GOP is the party of the 1%. They’re not even bothering to pretend they care about the rest of us anymore.

The ADP employment report showed that the U.S. private sector added 198,000 new jobs in February, which was well above expectations.

There simply aren’t enough people in the 1% to spur the demand that’s needed, and we’ve spent 30 years watching the trickle-down theory fail miserably.

The issue, however, is their message, not just the way it’s being delivered, though how they’ve been communicating that message hasn’t been helping (Romney’s 47% comment, for instance).

Trickle-down economics doesn’t work short-term, unless you happen to be very wealthy. It doesn’t work long-term at all.

Obama won the referendum on his Presidency with an electoral college landslide. But why?

Perhaps it’s time to apply another coat or two of democracy and vote out the advocates of supply side.

Republicans have a better chance of proving that Santa Claus is real than proving that conservative fiscal policies will ever work

Obviously you can continue to support Romney, that is your prerogative, but if your rationale for voting for Romney is ‘he’s not Obama,’ you open yourself up to questioning.

For whatever reason, the Republicans just don’t sound as believable as the President of the United States, and as he gave his speech in the East Room of the White House today about the fate of the Bush tax cuts, he just sounded…

If Mitt Romney is taking fire from both sides, he’s in trouble. In one single day, his leadership skills and foreign policy were blasted by religious right conservative Bryan Fischer while President Obama slammed his economic agenda

Imagine for a moment that you are vastly wealthy. Not month-long European vacation wealthy, but mansions scattered across the globe wealthy. Not maximum individual contribution to campaigns wealthy, but donate millions to Super-PAC wealthy. What would you buy if no tangible item was off-limits to you?

Pyramid schemes, the type that offer no soap, no candles, no kitchen knives, no lingerie, no lipstick, are illegal. Unless, you are talking about our entire economic system.

You’ve heard this from me many times over the years, but both parties are NOT the same, and anyone who says such a thing is not an “expert,” no matter how he/she portray themselves.

Republicans are celebrating the 100th anniversary of Ronald Reagan’s birth as if it was the birth of their savior, rewriting the history of failed ‘Trickle Down’ policies that have turned the once vibrant American middle class into economically insecure Serfs.

Sometimes I just don’t understand why there is always a financially struggling college kid, a low wage worker, or a middle class citizen that feel as though they have to go out of their way to defend tax breaks for the rich. At least once a month I find one person that wants to argue against their own interests and it continues to baffle me.
