Well…I almost forgot this neat little tidbit from Bill Clinton’s speech at the DNC earlier in the week…since the end of the cold war, democrats have created 50 million of the 51 million jobs created in that time frame…yep, you heard it right…the party who shouts they are best on the economy and the “socialist” dems just ruin it when they are in charge, created one million jobs in 50 years…I knew this to be the case in general but didn’t have real numbers to back it up…now I do and it is just so stunning that the repubs have been allowed to get away with the lies that they know what they are doing…it’s another well known fact that progressive policies always create a better economy and the latest study on tax cuts for the rich and the bullshit “trickle down” economics only enrich the already rich…none of that money ever goes down to the workers…it goes to dividends and stock buy backs that enrich people already at the top and that’s how the repubs want it…even those who have been lied to and duped into voting for repubs never get any benefit from tax cuts…all they get are crappier streets and schools and shredding of the safety net…I just wish the dems would message better on these points…not that it would make any difference to the maga crowd…geez…
