Ryan said that Congress will address Obamacare, make changes to the tax code, and roll back regulations.

Amen to that. Corporate America spends entirely too much money on safety glasses, marked exit signs and fire extinguishers.

Perhaps this time, the money that we give to billionaires via tax cuts will really trickle down.

Apparently Ryan didn’t read the memo:

Next year’s plan:

  1. Pull Trump International in DC from the edge of going bankrupt

  2. Secure the tax incentives for the new Trump tower at the new Taipei airport and commercial zone. Currently one
    of the largest construction projects in the world planned to build a world class airport and commercial zone.

  3. Privatize our military academies under Trump U. and make it a charter school with vouchers.

  4. Help the Koch brothers build the Keystone pipeline

Inside the GOP bubble: If we win the election by campaigning on solutions and ideas, we will be ready to govern. And here we are.

In the real world: The GOP campaigns on anti-government, burn it down demagoguery. And here we are.

Please don’t forget food inspectors. The Food Safety Modernization Act is just more bureaucratic BS that prevents any sh*tty food processing plant with rotten, maggot ridden meat (ala The Jungle) to make its way to the free market. That stops now!

My grandmother, rest her soul, once told me, out of the blue, that she thought that I was born for war.

And here we are.

I’d say the 1830’s. You couldn’t legally own other people in the 1890’s.

In other words, exactly what they’ve been doing for the past 6 years. “Focus” seems to have little to do with passing actual legislation. Do you really think there will be substantive changes to the tax code other than reductions for the top 1%? Reducing regulations - oh well, there goes anything do to with consumer protections. They may actually do that.
