After listening to most of Pres. Obama's talk this morning about tax reform, my head hurt and I needed an antidote. This interview with Kucinich and the article below worked better than aspirin.
Although speech writers composed his speech, Obama is an expert on a delivery that disguises reality behind feel-good rhetoric. No doubt, that is why the US ruling class hired him to be President.
The deficit and the reason why we have it underscores the transfer of wealth that's occurring in this country from the great mass of people into the hands of a few. And the Obama administration's actually presiding over that.This piece entitled, "White House budget deal imposes cuts in health care, education, home heating aid" from WSWS also sets the record straight.
The much ballyhooed mainstream media reporting regarding the differences between the budget cutting Republicans and Obama Democrats is a perfect illustration of the "good cop, bad cop" ploy that the ruling class has used so effectively on American workers.
