Stop your tax dollars from buying votes

Democrats love their bribes. Without bribes the party would cease to exist. Several Republicans love bribes as well but those “RINO's” are on the way out.
ObamaCare passed with the Louisiana Purchase and Cornhusker Kickback. The “stimulus bribe” bought the White House in 2008 and silenced conservative media. They paid off large banks and public unions in exchange for the presidency. There are no “shovel ready” jobs. Saving America from a great depression was the biggest hoax since the savings and loan crisis.
Democrats scream for higher taxes despite 50 percent of Americans paying no tax at all. They scream louder at flat tax systems or balanced budget amendments. A higher debt ceiling preserves power by extending bribes called entitlements. Their goal is to divide and conquer. They demonize corporations, the U.S. Constitution, the Bible and American flag. They promote open borders, same-sex marriage, and gunrunning to Mexican drug cartels. Jobs are not a priority. These tactics are classic Cloward-Piven for socialist reform. Their end goal is to take your money.
The foundation for the Democratic Party is dependency. Your tax dollars buys votes and votes buy fiscal policy that favor the ruling class and not the poor or middle class. From Lyndon Johnson's “Great Society” to $5 trillion in unfunded public pensions, these bribes are failures. The 50-year “Bribe America” campaign leaves a vast wake of poverty, despair, and financial ruin.
