DEC. 11, 2017 New York Times, Opinion

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — The Senate election in Alabama on Tuesday is not just about the choice between Doug Jones and Roy Moore. It’s also about a voter suppression campaign that may well sway the result of a close race.

The New Deal - Tax policy
In 1935, Roosevelt called for a tax program called the Wealth Tax Act (Revenue Act of 1935) to redistribute wealth. The bill imposed an income tax of 79% on incomes over $5 million.

A huge amount of TV, Radio and Internet are paid for by Republicans 75% to 80%, like three hours a day of Joe Scarborough with numerous amounts of GOP insiders, 52 weeks a year, times 3 hours a day is more than a equivalent of a may years campaigning back when we only had newspapers. When the world as we knew it all falls apart, I hope they all find there worth in the devastation they caused. The New Deal is a Forgotten Piece of History, are you ready for total destruction with WWIII or just the Second Great Depression on are doorstep just like the last Great Depression, Beware for history to repeat itself.

We can outsmart the dumbasses rethugs fascists everywhere. If You live I an area of voter suppression in 2018 we should organize an free ride to th polls on Election Day. Call and someone will pick you up and drive you to your voting area. The drivers will have been informed of voting areas.

Or adopt a voter, help them get the id and get them to the polls on Election Day.

Voteriders.org is a good place to get involved. Or 844-338-8743
