The Republican Sabotage Of America

September 9, 2011 By Egberto Willies

Excellent article on Republicans true intent. It is important that writers that are educating Americans on the reality of the true Republican ideology most Republicans are themselves unaware of, get visibility. Share frequently and help America from the decline they are bringing on the nation.

If one follows all that the Republicans are willing to stand up for, it is never something specific to provide the middle class the option to succeed.

Their real belief is that government can go above and beyond to help corporations and the wealthy and in doing so it will trickle down to the masses. Firstly it never trickles down.

Many progressive and independent thinkers clearly recognize this glaring fact, yet, Obama seems to be completely oblivious to it, or at the very least, failing to educate the American people regarding what is going on.

Our current condition is a part of the GOP’s “final solution” to an unwavering agenda that they’ve pursued since the days of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. They are determined to reverse “the New Deal,” and the poor and middle-class safety net provided therein.

The New Deal was a series of programs instituted by President Roosevelt between 1933 and 1936 during the Great Depression. The programs were designed to bring relief to the poor and middle class, help the economy to recover from the depression, and reform the behavior of the wheelers and dealers who caused the depression in the first place. So naturally, the wheelers and dealers were dead set against the programs then, just as they continue to be today.

Two of the programs that the corporatists hated most was the Fair Labor Standards Act and the Social Security Act – again, two of the very same programs that are under attack today. Corporatists were against these programs from their very inception for exactly the same reasons they’re intensely hostile …[CONTINUED]
