My, What An Expensive Bottle Of Wine You've Got There...

Politicians… So crafty and so cunning.
Master manipulators that can easily carry a shroud of virtue, all the while, meticulously orchestrating an ulterior motive for selective advancement.
This level of deceit carries over into both major political parties, does not matter if they are an elephant or a donkey. Exploitation is a human condition; it is boundless, it is without race and nationality
The primary goal is to retain an office of political weight, in order distribute public tax dollars and fund their agendas.
John Edwards was caught in a media firestorm for a frivolous haircut costing $1,250. It’s egregious for a very public official to spend money from a questionable source.

Beverly Hills stylist Joseph Torrenueva tells the Washington Post that one of his haircuts for Democratic presidential hopeful John Edwards cost $1,250 because Torrenueva had to fly to Atlanta and missed two days of work as a result. Torrenueva's role came to light when two $400 cuts showed up on Edwards' campaign spending reports.
 
A recent run-in with another pretty-boy politician surfaced in early July dealing with Paul Ryan, a fan favorite that have won over the public’s hearts. Well… maybe not the entire public according this recording:

After maintaining diligence to alter the course of Medicare government spending, it would be in good karmatic interest to display economic understanding while in the public setting.

Krama, sharm-a…

This dude had a grand evening, while in company of a couple of affiliates/lobbyists(?), by drinking TWO bottles of $350 wine at a luxurious Washington D.C. bistro. A vigilant observer was able to take notice of the Jayer-Gilles 2004 Echezeaux Grand Cru offered to Ryan and his guests, the most expensive wine in the house along with one other with the same pricetag.

According to TPM website, the receipt was obtained and photographed below:

Apparently they were able to successfully split the bill. That still doesn’t ensure any increased level of chivalry towards his cause.


Deplorable?

Definitely.
 

Politicians… as Mark Twain said, are like diapers; they need to be changed often and for the same reason.

Debates with Capitalist Conservatives, Vol. 4

I will be chronicling my conversations with those who appear to be oblivious of social awareness, and quite surprisingly, quite comfortable with our current system of administration thank you very much!

Behold, the masses (Their identities shall be concealed for their own protection, but their avatars are just way too precious):

Topic: Left Action- America “For Sale or Sold Out”

   Tim E-fat Smith 

‎"Capitalism is slavery in a very polite form, you and I are only worth so many dollars, and that form of currency is depreciating by the hour"

‎

•   Grandy E.- You got sold out by the left who does not care about you unless you specifically agree with their narrow mindset. As for capitalism, where to do you think the money for jbos comes from (the lettuce patch)?

• Tim E-fat Smith - Huh... lettuce patch? Ummm, job creation is the result of commerce. Multi-millionaires condoning slave labor camps in order to make a profit is completely different & sinister. You should ask yourself: WWJD?

•  Patrick H. - You're right, Grandy... They don't get it!

People who work their asses off their whole life are greedy "evil" rich people BUT the people who don't want to work and think that it's their "right" to have those greedy "evil" rich people support them.

Now I ask, which one of them are REALLY the "greedy" ones?

•  Marla L. - People must come before profit. 

• Tim E-fat Smith - There's no greed here, only requesting equal taxation amongst ALL Americans. If you make more that 106K, the remainder is exempt from Social Security taxation. Otherwise, all of your check is taxed. Where's the equality in that?

•   Patrick H. - @ Marla - It's the profit that allows a company to HIRE employees!

• Tim E-fat Smith - I've heard that argument before... Check the unemployment statistics. Check the jobs that are outsourced for pennies on the dollar. If you say "BLAME OBAMA", I will LOL & lose all respect for you...

An Abomination Beyond Measure

I frequently use the television to watch most current events as they unfold.
Most of the talk across the airways are usually filled with toxic political rhetoric that becomes unwatchable towards my attention span in a matter of minutes.

However, a story in reference to another misogynist/religious zealot has surfaced across the "blog-o-sphere" here in the U.S. These tragic series of events took place in North Carolina where a string of missing persons reports were linked to countless acts of mental and physical abuse. There was an unsettling amount of non-coverage for this story, I barely stumbled across these events while on Facebook.

My skepticism toward the national selective coverage; side-stepping such horrible human atrocities which compelled me to advocate the distinct levels of irrationality and derangement religious factions hold so dear to their dark-hearts. Was this a matter of this story being "swept under the rug" simply because lack of humanistic interest or merely because other stories were deemed more valuable toward national appeal?

The man, Peter Lucas Moses, 27, who shot his four-​year old step son to death because he thought the boy, Jadon Higganbothan.

Moses got angry at Jadon for hitting another child on the bottom. Prosecutors believe Moses thought Jadon was a homosexual, like his biological father, and it was against Moses’ religious beliefs so he shot Jayden in the head. Moses also shot to death a 28-​year old woman, Antoinetta Yvonne McKoy, may face the death penalty.

According to the local press at WRAL.com:

Moses beat her throughout most of the day, with the women joining in at least once, and tried to strangle her with an extension cord, according to the witness.

The witness described how McKoy begged for her life, but Sisk got the gun Moses used to kill Jadon and took it to the bathroom, prosecutors said. The women told Moses “you cannot let her go” and said they feared him going to jail, Cline said.

They turned on the same music in the bathroom and took McKoy in there, prosecutors said. Sisk shot McKoy several times, killing her, they said.

The group threw a party a few days later, prosecutors recalled the witness saying, and Moses showed McKoy’s body to several relatives, including his mother Sheilda Evelyn Harris, 56, his brother P. Leonard Moses, 21, and his sister, Sheila Falisha Moses, 20.

McKoy’s body was also kept in the house for some time, taped up inside black garbage bags placed in garbage bin, prosecutors said the witness told them.

Moses shared his house with multiple women who called him “Lord” and bore eight of his children.

Walmart CEO Makes Average Workers Annual Salary Every Hour

Walmart CEO Michael Duke’s salary is $35 million; it equates to earning an American employee's annual salary every hour.
The statistics compared to the wages of workers in overseas factory employees would be even more comedic.

This is the distribution of wealth gone horribly awry.
How would one single human use 35-million in a lifetime?
He won't. He'll make sure its handed down to his affiliates and push government agenda so that he retains as much of the pie as possible.

Overseas workers deserve to earn a decent wage comparative of the American workers.
Walmart can continue to sell/thrive and keep the prices competitive; just make sure overseas employees are not viciously exploited.
If that means Michael Duke’s multi-million dollar salary (and other "top earners") has to be trimmed and redistributed into his company... so be it.

This blog directly relates to a previous entry: "P" Is For Profits!!!

http://www.evilforalltime.blogspot.com/2011/07/p-is-for-profits.html

Our escalating costs of maintaining Welfare/Medicare on a national scale is creating an ELE (Extinction Level Event) towards our government's budget. Forever expanding a level a debt unlike anything our generation has ever witnessed before, ushering in financial crisis and collapse.

All of this is perfectly fine for the top-earners with millions in the vault, they have been made immune toward the potential plague of looming tax hikes and unemployment woes.

I wish other Americans would realize a broader sense of their repercussions from buying from crummy outlets such as Walmart & Gap.
Exploitation for cheaply manufactured goods are undoubtedly not worth the cost of slave labor.

This, in turn, creates a perpetual effect, since the workers in the U.S. are scratching themselves for available work, leaving many with little opportunity and forced to shop @ crummy outlets.
Plus, if low income families would make an effort from having children they cannot afford, that may help remedy some of our national burden.
But that's another topic for another day...
