What Is Really In The GOP's Secret Plans Will Shake You

Trying to understand what the GOP has in store for the country reminds me of Raiders Of The Lost Ark. Thanks to Luntz the GOP is using all these nice sounding catch words and rosy pictures about "freedom". They make it sound like they will create a new "economic Garden of Eden".

In the end I think of the Nazi who opens the Arc of the Covenant and looks in claiming how beautiful it is until --------. And we all know what happens after that. The GOP painted vision is not what voters are being led to believe it is.

This is a major issue which everyone except wealthy stockholders should be concerned about.

What better way is there to destroy what is left of the American middle class?

Their stated plan of lower taxes on the wealthy, eliminating the social safety net, eliminating safety regulations, cutting government agencies, using government to promote a religious agenda, treating the environment as a commodity to be exploited, disenfranchising voters, allowing corporations to control policies, and waging a bellicose foreign and military policy is bad enough. And these are just the ones I could think of first.

So what's their secret plan?

...get rid of most of the population of the world, cutting it down to a billion or so people.
I thought everyone knew that!
Maybe it is a secret after all...

most of us either can't believe anyone is serious about tanking the economy and gutting the constitution or we live in denial.

As an old woman, I see the same thing being done in my own country by the Tea Party. People have learned nothing from history.
