They want to build up resources for the next four years, come in afterward and gorge on the benefits of all the rest of us will have to do to pay for their eight-year orgy of death and greed. like they did after Clinton. You remember Clinton, right? He gave y'all a budget surplus.Try to picture it, because thanks to his successor, you'll never again see one in your lifetime.
And as a sign of things to come that should give the Wall Street Gangsters pause, a CEO of an Italian company was killed today in New Delhi by a mob of sacked workers. This is what it may come to. Worth some thought.
