Socialism, Bush Style

Government expenditures have been rising at alarming rates for the past five years, with more and more money going to rich people and Republican companies.

The aggregate power of the U.S. economy continues to rise, but poverty continues to rise as well, incomes are painfully stagnant, more people are relying on government health care while fewer have insurance through their employers.

The Bush poverty policy? The poor, with no better options, go off to die in a war to make rich people richer while the children of the rich laugh and play.

This situation is intolerable. As income inequality rises, so does social discontent, the potential for widespread health problems, educational stagnation, and an erosion of civic duty.

Nothing good can come from this level of economic corruption and socialism for the rich.
