    This is intentional. Crash the economy, then use that as an excuse to shutter every social program and public good. In ride the corporations on their white horse to offer us those same services, for a price. Can’t afford the new prices for using the highway, fire protection, your kid’s school? No problem, just sign here and your great-grandkids will still be down your debt.

      This is the little asterisk next to “republicans was small government*”

      *cut the government agencies who exist to work within a budget and replace them with private companies who exist solely to generate profit…that they use to pay us.
