The American people have a choice this November, stay the
course with Hillary or take a chance on the Donald
Hillary Clinton is the stay the course candidate whereas
Donald Trump is the “turn the ship of state around” candidate. If you
like the domestic and foreign policies
of Bush/Obama, Hillary is your girl, if you don’t take a chance on Donald. Trump is not part of the establishment and
has been critical of both Bush and Obama.
Bush/Obama anti-American policies
Friday the House voted to allow the 911 families to sue Saudi Arabia for their financing of the 911
terror attacks. The vote followed the
unanimous Senate vote earlier this year.
Obama has vowed to veto the bill.
Whose interests are being served, American or Saudi?
Wall Street over Main Street
The Federal Reserve Bank has allowed US companies to load up
on debt, buy back their shares and shower shareholders with cash that exceeds
the profits of the companies. This Fed
policy has decimated the middle class in America. Who’s interests do the Fed represent, Main
Street or Wall Street? How many jobs
were created by the Fed's $3 trillion
in QE? Zero.
Killing our planet
The US Corps of Engineers has allowed the looting and polluting
of American’s natural resources on tribal lands. The brave people of the Standing Rock Sioux
Tribe have been fighting to protect their water and land from the Dakota Access Pipeline. The private military G4S unleased dogs on peaceful
protesters and leveled a sacred burial site in response. The pipeline project poses a risk of
irreversible damage on land, aquifers and the environment.
On Friday, after a federal judge refused the tribe’s request
to halt construction of the pipeline a joint statement was issued by the
Department of Justice, the Department of Interior and the Department of the
Army announcing they would not allow the construction to continue. The construction has been halted temporarily
to review compliance with the National
Historic Preservation Act.
Public Education
Public education has been decimated by No Child Left Behind
and Race to the Top. After the
privatization of Sallie Mae, student loan
debt has ballooned to $1.3 trillion.
The Bankruptcy protection act prohibits the 40 million Americans with
student loan debt from filing bankruptcy or from restructuring their loans. ITT technical college, who received federal education
funding abruptly closed last week leaving 8,000 employees jobless and 40,000
students nationwide in limbo.
Profits over people
Big Pharma has
been allowed to price gouge life-saving drugs to stratospheric levels. Neurotoxins are being sprayed across Florida
and the nation to combat the mosquito borne Zika virus. Monsanto has been given immunity from
prosecution for its lethal products and TPP will allow foreign companies to sue
states if they pass laws that cut into their profits.
So the choice is clear this November if you like the foreign
and domestic policies of Bush/Obama vote for Hillary, if you want to take a
chance on change, vote for the Donald.
