Yeah, trickle down economics might not work the best but trickle up poverty seems to be working fine. Extending unemployment to 99 weeks just screams "Yeah we're fucked but we still want your votes".

Politicians in general are lying pieces of shit, look at it this way, only the sleaziest, lying, slimeballs make it to the top, none of em have our best interest at heart. The only way to get our point across is to vote out the incumbents and let the newbs know we are watching. For the people, by the people, or hit the road jack.
