America Crumbles As The Rich Count Their Money

 Did you see the most recent bridge collapse in Washington State, on T.V.? America is disintegrating because of unfair tax rates that favor the rich. In the early 1950's the Republican President Dwight D. Eisenhower and the Congress at the time, taxed the rich and the rest of the country at rates that allowed us to build a great modern highway system. The worst thing our current president has done is is twice not letting all the Bush tax cuts expire. Because of president Clinton's leadership in tax rate fairness the economy boomed. President Bush then took a huge tax surplus distributed it to the wealthy and caused the biggest downturn since the great depression.Given the chance to go back to fair tax policy president Obama chose twice to cripple if not kill any chance we had to get this country repairing it's infrastructure again. This president does not know how to fight or even counter punch.Now beset by media hyped scandals and Republicans who have hated him since he took office he has become as ineffectual any lame duck can be. A fighter battles back the school yard brainiac just gets beat up. Too bad the the stakes are so high.
