The Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert in his very first blog entry:

“while Americans paying were record prices at the pump, energy companies were making record profits.

This is America. And Republicans don’t believe in punishing success. “

Who is Hastert working for, the American People or Oil Company Executives?

The price of everyday goods is way up, gas is nearly triple what it was before the war, millions of Americans, especially truckers can’t make ends meet, while Exxon earns record profits?! It’s *$#%ing sick!

Rep. Bernie Sanders has asked Congress to investigate the price gouging, but that’s probably just another year long investigation that will lead nowhere…

It’s like they’re laughing at what they can get away with. Enron ‘overstated’ Billions, thousands of employees lost their life savings, yet Ken Lay walks free while people are tasered 9 times and killed for loitering, Halliburton has ‘earned’ billions paying Pakistanis and Filipinos pennies to work in Iraq, Bremer’s CPA ‘lost’ $9 billion in Iraq, the Pentagon ‘lost’ 2.3 Trillion… and this is just the money being STOLEN from US.

There’s also the unjust systems such as Prisons for Profit are represented on the NYSE, and now America has the highest incarceration rate of any industrialized nation- 1 million non-violent prisoners equals easy money… who’s making money on the drug war? the prison industries, the weapons makers, the mafia, the CIA, the pharmaceuticals… even Monsanto makes money selling roundup to be sprayed on coca plants, incidentally poisoning the natives in Columbia. This is just sick.

At what point will America say ENOUGH! Imagine if we had spent $300 billion investing in alternative technology. Imagine a living wage for while our brilliant minds develop and deploy solar, wind and tidal power in all 50 states. Imagine a gov’t actually providing for it’s people in a beneficial way for all, not sending the poor to kill and die so rich pigs can get even richer.

These thieves in high places are laughing while our (children’s)national debt has passed the $8 trillion while thousands of our youth are being used as cannon fodder (mp3) for the elite.
