they won (and now they see they really lost)

I just left the rights leading blog in maine; one of the threads I could have written
7 years ago. it has been the tradition for the past 40 years.
republicans get elected to the whitehouse and the economy tanks. the format is:
give business tax breaks,lower interest rates,get suckers to go in debt. then put the squeeze on. how,raise prices,raise interest rates on credit cards,overspend the budget,run huge deficits,start false wars (grenada,kuwait,etc) waste billions and know that the housing market will collapse.
so the point=these great voices in maine who cry out for us to cast our vote for their party now have a thread complaining about the poor or slowing economy in maine,thats the dunce of the group,while others are pointing out its nation wide.
the fact is it was predictable. deficits put a stranglehold on the national budget.
their is no conservatism left in the republican party! because business controls it.

There's only one non-neocon running for the R presidential nomination and most Repukes can't stand him because he is anti-war.

they have achieved office by deceit, touting smaller govt.,less taxes,the nra and christian values. once they attain office its overspending,tax cuts for the wealthy and
corrupt morals. that doesn't include false wars,corrupt contracts,enron,several lobbyists now on trail and the list goes on.
what they have accomplished in 7 years is to cause my property tax to almost double(because of shedding federal responsibility),almost bankrupting all state governments,got us in a war that is bankrupting the country.caused the price of beef,chicken and pork to sky rocket.produce is out of sight,apples are $0.99 a pound.
kept the wages as low as they could!
but most of all they have raised the price of heating oil from $0.719 in oct of 2000 to
$2.699 oct 1 2007
the price of gas from $0.799 on oct1, 2000 to $2.799 on oct 1 2007.
the avg wage scale in the area has increased approx $1.00 in 7 years
the avg household has 2 vehicles and drive approx 22000 miles (thats conservative)
22000 divided by 16(avg mileage of both vehicles)=1375 gal.
1375 x$.799= $1098.62 gas for 2000
1375 x$2.799= $3848.62 for 2007
$3848.62-$ 109.62 is a diff of $2750 that alone takes your raise. the avg person working 40 hours works 2080 hours so now your out $670 more than your raise and thats clear money not counting what you lost for taxes.
the avg family uses 1300 gals. of heating oil a year
$0.719 x 1300= $934.70 in 2000
$2.699x 1300= $3508.70 in 2007 a diff of$2574
the oil companies are making record profits,the farmer gets $12 a bushel for apples.
do you think maybe corporations profits are out of control?
do you feel like the publics pocket is being picked by big business?

I wonder if a business man feels when he buys his vendor license that he thinks
his moral value stays home and he thinks that license gives him the right to rob the public blind!
