Fools and Damned Fools

Over the past days, our nation, the world even, has been swept through the raging tides of a thief. It was not enough to give tax breaks to the rich, it was not enough to devastate the safety net of the poor, it was now to be the middle class upon the chopping block. And, fools that they were, they rooted him on as he decimated their retirement, made their groceries more expensive, and created a tax on every product they would purchase.

Perhaps I’m “too strong in my opinion”? Perhaps I’m “being unfair to a great patriotic American who only wants to secure a great future for our nation”? Ok, let me ask you who, like me, have invested all that you can into your 401k: How easily can you move your money around? Can you do it within a week? A couple of days? How quickly does your 401k manager react to emergency move requests? How much would you lose in transaction fees? While every middle class American who has their money locked into investments had little choice but to take it up the ass from this particular ass clown’s fuckery with the world economy, his friends and colleague’s pulled some mad money out of their lobbyist bribe fund and made a fortune.

I look forward to the moment the damned fools that voted for this man look deep into their mirror and realize that while he tanked their 401k’s (interestingly every damn republican administration has and twice now on this one), everyone with an ability to move large amounts of money around raped huge rewards.

Well, shit. Nevermind.

Boy, I am sure tired of all this winning.

Hugs Everyone. Good Luck. -randy

Oh, and btw, Liz – not buying it. You ain’t gonna do a damn thing.

  1. Hi. I agree with you mostly, Randy. Plus his actions with tariffs raised the US debt because of the bond market. The Canadian Prime Minister is the one that took tRump down. Canada bought a lot of bonds and the PM went to Europe and convinced them to do the same. Then when the tariffs were imposed they began dumping them. That was money the US had to pay and caused the bond market interest rate to rise. It made the value of the dollar drop greatly. On Warren I do think if the democrats had power they would investigate the situation and demand action. The agency she founded recouped tens of billions for the public and kept the financial institutions from ripping off the consumers. tRump shut it down. Hugs

    1. Hi Scottie. When right and wrong are irrelevant, when legal and illegal is not what the law says but what the party in power wants done, when the People’s Lawyer is actually drumpf’s personal lawyer, ain’t a damn thing going to happen. Sadly. And, in all fairness to Warren, she definitely has done some good things for the financial stability and accountability of the financial sector, republican presidents repeatedly dismantle those protections and we all pay another bank bailout.

      Hugs!
