Republicans/Democrats and capitalist friends. Worse than you could ever imagine.

Already in this blog it has been reported that the richest 400 Americans have made $670 billion in the Bush years. And now the Democrats and Republicans are going to hand over another $700 billion to bail out these same capitalists and their financial institutions. This is a crime and a scandal of unimaginable proportions.

But compare it to the approach of capitalism in another area. Bush has just cut $8 million and in doing so halted a government program which tests the levels of pesticides in fruits, vegetables and field crops. This will make it harder to protect us from toxins in our foods. Bush and co argue the program is too expensive. So the top 400 can make $670 billion, $700 billion can go to bail out the rich, but they cannot afford $8 million to test our food for toxins. Capitalism is a rotten and degenerate system. It does not work. We have to fight for democratic socialism on a world scale.
