Dumb and Dumber GOP Tax Edition. PEOPLE'S ACTION.



House votes to make YOU pay for a massive tax cut for wealthy

Trump and the GOP promised to cut cut cut and boy do they mean it. But it's not you or I who will benefit.
Thanks to Paul Ryan and the House GOP, millions of working and middle class families will pay MORE taxes to stuff the pockets of the rich and big corporations. This is a big holiday gift to their donors.
The tax bill is health care repeal in reverse. First, they cut taxes for big corporations and billionaires. Then they slash Medicare by $470 billion, Medicaid and other health programs by $1.3 trillion over the next ten years. They are taking lifesaving medicine from children and the elderly to make more money than they can ever spend.
This could be the largest wealth transfer -- from working people to the ultra wealthy -- in American history. This dwarfs the tax cuts of Reagan and George W. Bush, neither of which led to real economic growth. Instead they stuck us with the bill.

VOTE OUT THOSE WHO BETRAY US... CALIFORNIA CONGRESSIONAL CAND. BRYAN CAFORIO.



Congressman Knight just voted to raise our taxes. Let’s make sure he knows there will be consequences.

...vote Republicans out of the House in 2018.

Congressman Knight knew the Republican tax plan would hurt California families. He even told us he had concerns. But when it came time to stand with our community, Knight turned his back on us and gave President Trump and Paul Ryan his vote.

Congressman Knight betrayed us. We won’t let him forget.

Congressman Knight’s loyalty is to Donald Trump and Paul Ryan, not our community...condemn his vote...voting Republicans out in 2018.

Actions have consequences. If our leaders are going to turn their backs on us, let’s be sure and do the same to them at the ballot box next year.

FEATURE ARTICLES. WHY DO POLITICIANS LIE? PT 3.


Now that we have DISCUSSED THE DEFINITION OF "LIE" AND "DECEPTION", Which are Basically NEGATIVE BEHAVIORS OR ACTIONS THAT...

...EITHER DELIBERATELY GIVE FALSE AND INCORRECT INFORMATION, OR WITHHOLD NECESSARY DATA...  

...THAT WOULD GIVE THE CITIZEN OR VOTER MORE FACTUAL INFORMATION TO MAKE  MORE CONSIDERED CHOICES COME ELECTION TIME.

The Question is -  Does it Matter, and If So, HOW MUCH?

Year After Year, Poll After Poll We ARE CONSTANTLY TOLD HOW MUCH THE AVERAGE VOTER OR CITIZEN IS FED UP WITH THE WAY GOVERNMENT;


- CONDUCTS BUSINESS.

-  IS FULL OF IMMORAL AND DISHONEST INDIVIDUALS.

-  PROTECTS THE RICH AND THE UNDESERVING.

-  HAS LOST TRUST WITH THE "COMMON MAN."

AND MOST IMPORTANTLY... MUST BE OVERHAULED 
WITH NEW FACES AND FRESH IDEAS.

Yet if We Examine the Results of Past Elections, the REALITY OF
THE DETERMINATION BY VOTERS TO ALTER THE 
"STATUS QUO" BECOMES CLEAR:  IT IS MAINLY A DESIRE TO SEE
OTHER VOTERS REMOVE THEIR INCUMBENTS FROM ELECTED 
OFFICE, BUT NOT ENOUGH TO DO THE SAME WITH THEIR OWN REPRESENTATIVES.

EVEN WHEN THIS DOES HAPPEN, THE NEWLY ELECTED
OFFICIALRARELY REPRESENTS A CLEAR BREAK WITH THE IDEOLOGY AND OPINIONS OF HIS PREDECESSOR. SOMETIMES IT IS JUST THE SAME OLD PRODUCT, REPACKAGED AND RESOLD IN A DIFFERENT FORM.

SO WHAT DOES THIS TELL US ABOUT THE NECESSITY FOR INCUMBENT OFFICE HOLDERS TO BE TRUTHFUL, AND IF DOING SO PAYS OFF, ( AT LEAST POLITICALLY), OR IS ACTUALLY A LIABILITY TO A LONG CAREER IN POLITICS?

"ANGELS FOR ANIMALS.."

PETA

 

I build doghouses with PETA because no dog should ever have to face a frigid winter without shelter.

Building a doghouse
 
 
 
Dear David,
To see a dog shivering, huddled on the cold, frosty ground just trying to stay warm … it breaks my heart. That's why I do what I do: build doghouses for neglected "outdoor dogs" with PETA.
But at this time each year, as days grow shorter and temperatures drop, my work becomes all the more urgent. Winter is nearly here—and neglected dogs who don't get shelter in time may not survive until spring.
...but right now, there aren't enough funds to build all the doghouses that we need to deliver before the dangerous winter weather sets in. 
I've seen firsthand the conditions that so many dogs are forced to live in—soaking wet and caked with mud, which puts them at risk for painful infections. When it snows, they curl up in the plastic crate or broken barrel that serves as their sad excuse for "shelter" and struggle to make it through the long, cold night.
Their owners do have a choice—and PETA's fieldworkers do everything that they can to encourage them to make the right one. But when they can't be persuaded to allow their dogs indoors and local officials won't enforce the meager provisions of the law, we do everything in our power to make suffering dogs more comfortable. We provide them with sturdy doghouses, straw bedding, a toy to play with, and even basic medical care such as flea and tick treatment.
Ultimately, the number of dogs we can help depends on how much support we get from friends...
