TheVoiceOfJoyce I’m reprinting Nobel Prize winner, Joseph Stiglitz article from The Economist. I’m a convert to Keynesian Philosophy and Economics. Keynes saved Capitalism and managed to provide people with employment and a social safety net, too! Republican Presidents, unfortunately, resurrect Supply Side Economics and always destroy our economy with tax cuts to the wealthy. All they achieve is inequality and a degradation of our Democracy. Time to vote their bad policies out!

TheVoiceOfJoyce We’ve got the President we voted for and now we can elect Congressional Representatives and State Legislatures to represent us. While Trump flays about and lies , he’s increasing our debt and our inflation. He may think inflation is beautiful, I don’t, do you? We’re stuck with Trump’s endless diatribes and costs Wars till November. Then, I’m confident we’ll curtail his actions and policies.

TheVoiceOfJoyce If the Senate confirms “Carte Blanche” Trump’s previous illegal actions and corruption will be legitimized. However, “Carte Blanche”, if confirmed, can be convicted, just like Nixon’s AG, John Mitchell. Don’t confirm Carte Blanche. Make Trump and his kids accountable for Tax evasion and Corruption. Trump and his family are becoming wealthy on the People’s money, while we’re suffering with a high cost of living, few good paying jobs, poor schools and infrastructure. Plus we’re paying for Corporate toxicity of our lan, air and water. Trump’s war in Iran will most likely add $1 Trillion to our ballooning debt. We must stop catering to Trump and vote for new Legislators this November to regain control of our government and our lives. Remember, Medicare is at risk immediately after the midterms. Do not confirm Blanche and give Trump more power !

Trump wants to legalize his corruption by making Todd (Carte) Blanche Attorney General. The Senate can’t confirm Blanche and leave Trump and his family unaccountable for their crimes and corruption. Call your Legislators.

TheVoiceOfJoyce In the wee hours Trump’s Senate Republicans passed $70 Billion extra for ICE &CBP. They’re keeping citizens detained in terrible conditions and not allowing Congressional representatives or the Governor from going into detention facilities, as is their right. Immigration under Trump has been a death sentence for 30/year. Why? Because they hate people of brown and black skin. If Trump and his Republican Legislators believe in their innate superiority, they shouldn’t represent our Government. These United States have thrived by accepting Immigrants from 165 Countries. The good news, reconciliation budgets can be amended under a functioning Congress with Representatives of the People . Incidentally, Trump kept his immunity from Tax evasion prosecution!

TheVoiceOfJoyce I know from personal experience, North Carolina, needs better representation for minorities. My friend, an African American woman, was just told she was no longer registered. It took weeks to get a case # and supply the documents needed for reinstatement on the voting rolls. North Carolina is notorious for making voting difficult. They need a change in Legislators responsive to the needs of all constituents. Consider voting for Chuck Hubbard.
