The best government money can buy
So, Millionaires and Billionaires, like the Koch brothers, those who have the power over our government because they have the money to buy it, want unlimited profits for themselves, quickly, and will do WHATEVER long-term damage to the nation and the world to get it for themselves. They want less regulation on pollutants in the air we breath, water we drink and land we live on, so they can make more profit more quickly. They pay off those in the Senate and House to get what they want. And it's not for the sake of the laborers - they have funded people like Scott Walker and others to bust unions and lower wages and benefits to average workers. It's not for our American Democracy and its citizens - they have funded and supported voter suppression efforts across the country to keep elderly, young, disabled and minority voters from getting to cast their ballots. It is just for themselves, at the price of our democracy, environment and financial stability. And more like these guys are who you want to support in business and in government? How un-American is that? How un-Christian is that?
