This comment censored by Huffington Post. About Jack Lews confirmation as Treasury Sec


Obama IS a crony capitalist or Corporatist - just LIKE the Republicons have been for some time. 

When he said change - he didn't mean it. 
He meant to say he was keeping right along with the GW Bush agenda, for Bush's 4th term. 

Both domestically and internationally. 

Government of the rich, by the rich and for the rich. 

Government of the monopolists, by the monopolists and for the monopolists. 

And to hell with the economy, America and 99.9%+ of Americans. 


In response to this article about Jack Lew's confirmation. 
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/02/27/jack-lew-confirmed_n_2773791.html


Some of my comments do actually get published from time to time. 

Like these :- 

"Another sad day for America. 
Another sad day for Americans. 

Another Wall Street insider goes to Treasury. 
Another Wall Street insider as Treasury Sec who will work for the banks and to the great detriment of the people."

“Contrary to the article, Jack Lew is no budget expert - otherwise he would be proposing something like this. 

Cutting $1.3tn a year of Corporate Welfare.
It's easy to do.

Reducing taxes on middle earners and below. 
I favor raising the tax thresh hold from $8,700 to $45,000 as the simplest way. 
That would cost $500bn a year straight into the pockets of people who would spend it to help the economy - ORDINARY people not fat cats. 

COMPLETELY reform Corporation Tax. 
A flat rate of 25% - no loopholes or tax breaks whatsoever. 
Stop the multinationals tax avoidance schemes. 
Make the first $100,000 of profit tax free to give a huge tax break for SMALL businesses. 

I would stop the Fed pumping $1tn a year to the speculative big banks. 
This is causing inflation in food and gas prices and further eroding ORDINARY people's disposable incomes. 

The Corporate cartels which now operate in each major industry need to be broken up. 
For the banks that means the immediate reinstatement of Glass Steagal as a first step. 

Corporate profits are at record levels - a symptom of a lack of competition in the market. 

Poverty and the number of people on food stamps are also at record levels. 
A symptom of policies that help the 0.1% to the great detriment of the 99%.

“I agree. 

Jack Lew's "expertise" will be to bail out the big banks again, when next they come running. 

And to drive middle America into the ground.”
