Cape Coral: Jim Healy's Great Idea

Here's my idea, change the Republican fairy tale of GOP to GOR. That would stand for Government of the Rich. 

1) The Congress has recently voted to abolish the Estate Tax. This of course benefits only the top one tenth of one percent of us. 
2) Corporate welfare equaling $100 billion per year. 
3) Tax give aways or direct subsidies at the state, county and city level equaling $80 billion dollars per year. 
4) Corporate tax subsidies equaling $100 billion per year. 
5) Even though the oil companies are making tens of billions of dollars per year, you and I are giving them $4.5 billion of dollars per year in subsidies. 
6) Despite record crop prices the Congress voted to increase big Farma's Government give away by billions of dollars per year. 
7) The top 10 banks in the US receive $83 billion per year in subsidies. Remember the "stimulus" of 2008? We gave them $700 billion on that one. 
8) This is a little known fact; the U.S. insurance companies will receive $1.071 trillion in the next 10 years in government subsidies. 
9) There is no intelligent method to put a number on the amount of money the Wall Street companies receive per year, but it must be in the trillions. You take a guess. 
10) Increasing military spending every year, while cutting every social program across the board to pay for it. You will love what else he has to say. here

You know the GOP is in trouble when this is coming from someone in a very heavy Republican part of Florida.
