This is a comment I posted to "Social Security chief: Disability cut would be a 'death sentence'" ( http://tinyurl.com/... ), but I thought it might be worth posting as a diary...
The G.O.Pricks (and their F**ks News toadies) are great at creating manipulative buzzwords, then repeating them nonstop until they're accepted as conventional wisdom. Case in point: "entitlement." Sounds like greedy people saying "yeah, I'm entitled to your money," doesn't it?
It's about time to use the same strategy - only truthfully: repeat after me:
"FAIR SHARE"
As in "the wealthy and the corporations benefit - more than the rest of us - from the schools, the infrastructure (roads in particular), the police protection, the military, the scientific research and especially tax breaks to set up businesses.
"And yet, they don't pay their fair share of the taxes needed to keep government working for all of us. It's simple, just do the math: if you make $xx thousand a year you pay xx% of your income; if you make $xxx thousand, you only pay [miniscule by comparison]% - that's not what I call a fair share !
"It's time the wealthy and the corporations who benefit so much from government service the rest of us pay for, to pay their fair share , not just for their benefit, but for the benefit of all. Asking them to pay their fair share is the only way to make government work fairly for all of us! The time for them to pay their fair share is long overdue."
Repeat as often as necessary - and then some.
Get the idea, elected Democrats? Or are you going to remain stupid, reactive [slang for female genitalia insultingly used to indicate weakness and timidity]s and let these greedy bastards continue to screw over the rest of us?
Over and out.
