People forget, or don't know that Raygun was picked by a corporate elite and then SOLD to the public like a cheesburger. Wharfrat has posted on occasion, the story of how Raygun was nothing more than a front man for big business. He was an actor who played the role of president well. And he fulfilled his role well. Busted the unions from 35% to about 6% today, busted government and gave an extra 100 billion a year to the military industrial complex and 100 billion in tax cuts to the rich, and the people said: what a great guy. Raygun also had dementia which can be identified in a persons 20's so by the time he was president he was out of it intellectually. He was a liberal when he was young and intellectually competent. And look at how wall street made out. Record profits last year for Goldman Sachs. 182 billion for AIG no questions asked, and yet not even few billion (without right wing rancor)for unemployment, gulf oil spill clean up and the car companies. The corproatists must be reigned in! And the Republican party needs to be squashed like the cockroaches they are.
