Christian Democrats in the United States
Domestic Issues - Jobs and Taxes We demand a living wage for all workers in America and object to attempts to establish a flat tax because of the comparative value of one dollar to one's total capital. We insist on closing tax loopholes for the wealthiest people and corporations, and support tax incentives for corporate programs with substantial public benefit. America must find a way to increase manufacturing exports since service jobs add less to the economy in the long term. We support a shorter, smarter work-week for all Americans.

This is one of the companies that George W. Bush wanted to handle our social security funds, because he argued that it would get better returns.
What kind of a return would this have been? Do they think we're that stupid?
George W. Bush wanted to give YOUR money to HIS friends on Wall Street.
Wake up and smell the corruption. Neo-conservatism is a lie. Republican financial policy is a lie. They do not care about America. They do not care about you.
They want to screw you over any way they can, to get all they can right now, with no thought of financial security for the future.
It's difficult to admit that you have been fooled on many levels. This reminds me of my Mom, who switched from her accountant to a major investment firm at 67 years old. The 22-year old "executive vice president" convinced her that her family had no business helping her with her finances, and she put all of her retirement into money market accounts in secret, and lost several hundred thousand dollars. Then when we begged her to put the money into more stable funds, she went BACK to the SAME PEOPLE and they convinced her to put the money in an annuity fund, which is still losing, and probably lost a lot today. Sorry Mom, truth hurts.
ATTENTION OLD PEOPLE: Investment firms are trying to swindle you. Their lobbyists have bought the White House. Please, for the love of God, keep your retirement money in stable, insured savings accounts, so we poor kids don't have to be slaves for the rest of our lives to take care of you! Or, if you are going to give it away, give it to the poor. Don't give it to these snakes and schmucks.
