A Stupid Proposal

If the government is going to be shut down, every member of Congress should be fined so that they can, collectively, pay the salaries of the military during the shut down. Not one Congressperson should be paid as long as our military is not.

Time to Kill Medicare?

Republicans plan to kill Medicare and Medicaid.

In short, if you aren't rich and you vote Republican, you are an idiot. The only goal of the current Republican party is to make rich people as rich as possible while utterly screwing anyone middle class or poor. If you are voting Republican for moral reasons, you are even stupider. "Oh, they agree with me on abortion and marriage!" No, they don't. They will claim they do, over and over, just to convince you to vote against your own interests. The people who care about stopping poverty and unwanted pregnancies are the people who try to protect them with a strong social safety net and ideas that will grow the economy and provide jobs. But since those people believe in marriage equality and the right of women to control their own bodies, moronic self-righteous idiots will vote for the people who are trying to kill Medicare. Good job, moronic religious voters. You should just give your paycheck to the nearest corporation, it'll be faster.
