A few open threads…

Well…don’t really have a big one for today but I do have a few short open threads that I do want to comment on…

First…why the hell are we talking about gutting social security and medicare when the programs are solvent until 2030? If we can get the repubs out of the way and get to historical levels of growth in the economy, that extends out another 15 years or so…so why are the repubs so adamant about cutting and cutting the things that the middle class depends on to stay above poverty? Especially since these don’t contribute one penny to the deficit…

Then we have more mischief by the repubs here in Michigan where they are going ahead with the plans to rig the electoral vote so they will win the majority of them even when they lose the state…they can’t win on ideas so lie, cheat, and steal…

Then, let’s move on to Oklahoma and the new plans to allow employers to not include birth control in their health plans since in women, it “suppresses their identity and poisons their bodies”…and they are writing this law for the entire state on the request of one quack doctor…what the hell happened to trying to put people back to work?

Okay….that’s all for now…might have a few more for later….
