America's political process is too dysfunctional and corrupted to fix. People should either vote independent or stay home. Both major parties are two sides of the same coin. Not a dime's worth of difference that matters separates them.
They represent money power and imperial lawlessness. People needs are spurned. Bipartisan complicity plans destroying them entirely. Social America is on the chopping block for elimination. Political Washington's vision is dark age harshness.
Obama/Biden/Romney/Ryan represent the worst of all possible worlds. Obama's con man days began in Illinois. Before entering politics, Romney parlayed grand theft into super wealth.
As Bain Capital head, he profiteered by leveraged buyouts, asset-stripping companies, and leaving thousands of workers high and dry. As president, he'll do for America what he did to one plundered company after another.
On August 29, Matt Taibbi headlined his Rolling Stone article "Greed and Debt: The True Story of Mitt Romney and Bain Capital."
He calls him the flip side of Che or Trotsky. He's a human wrecking machine. He's right out of predatory capitalism's central casting. He's a visionary for everything harming people.
His campaign reflects "a shimmering pearl of perfect political hypocrisy." He's kept it hidden out of sight. Ryan's his alter ego. He's "a self-righteous anal, thin-lipped, Whitest Kids U Know penny pincher who'd be honored to tell Oliver Twist" the soup bowl is empty, go hungry.
On the one hand, Romney claims "a prairie fire of debt" is ravaging America. On the other, he got super-rich by "borrowing vast sums of money that other people were forced to pay back." He's one of the "most irresponsible debt creators of all time."
