3. Anyone that thinks giant multinational corporations have an interest in pushing
liberal economic interests has been brainwashed. Period.

Even the daftest amongst the American population realize that large companies pursue strategies that maximize profit for themselves.

IF the media pushed liberal policies they would most assuredly not be pursuing their maximum profit potential BECAUSE:

1. Liberals would raise their fucking taxes.
2. Liberals would eliminate the loopholes that allow them to not only NOT pay taxes, but to receive massive tax subsidies instead.
3. Liberals would not allow these corporations to continue to get tax benefits for giving our jobs to India and China.

Dot, dot, dot, etc., etc., etc.

That's A LOT of money that could be recouped and allocated towards things like Soc. Sec. and health care in this country.

The multinationals and elite 1% have almost all of the wealth that USED to be distributed more fairly in our country and STILL there are brainwashed mouth-breathers that are fighting for legislative policy that would make the divide even worse.

If you're fighting for tax cuts for the wealthy, tax increases for the middle, working class, and poor (and most likely yourself), and social spending cuts that will literally mean the difference between life and death for many American citizens (and potentially even for yourself or your loved ones) then you're
a fucking rube.

So frustrating.
