The GOP's Biggest Scam [View all]

"Republicans campaign on the idea that government is broken or ineffective. Once elected they sabotage its functions, then use their own failure as proof that privatization is the only solution --- Ultimately enriching their friends.

The GOP intentionally makes government dysfunctional so they can justify selling it off to their wealthy donors. It’s not just bad policy — it’s a calculated scam."
