This recession, the greatest in American history, was directly caused by Republican deregulation of the financial sectors at the beset of the GOP’s primary donors – the wealthy, corporate CEOs, bankers, insurance companies and Wall Street.
The pension deficit at play in most states is because the Republican Recession destroyed around half of our 401s and IRAs that pension managers invested in. Because the Republican rating industries lied giving crap triple star ratings.
So who must pay for what the wealthy Republicans did?
State workers, guys who plow the snow, teachers, fireman, pregnant women, children, seniors, the poor, the working poor and the middle class.
So said the the majority of American voters who DESERVE EVERY KICK IN THE HEAD THEY GET for voting for these selfish nasty bastards.
