Snake Oil
13 years ago
It irritates me that people are dumb enough to buy into a campaign that neatly sidesteps details of its own platform over 75% of the times they are asked for them. Its like, "Its a super bonus awesome surprise! You won't know how we really feel unless you vote for us! So vote for us and then we'll tell you! You know you want to right? To find out what you win? C'mon! Do it!" *poke poke* and people are EATING THAT SHIT UP. You know its just gonna be a let down, but your sense of wonder and excitement at the surprise that awaits you keeps that snake oil flying off the shelves.
Spoiler alert in case you were planning on voting for the mystery platform to see whats behind the door with the elephant on it...
Crackdowns on availability of cheap healthcare for women.
Crackdowns on availability of cheap healthcare for low income families.
Tax cuts for the rich
Tax cuts for big business
Leaning on the rape and destruction of our green spaces to support an energy independence plan that will take us two steps back when THE OIL IS ALL USED UP. Its gonna happen people, its a FINITE resource, which means that any energy policy that involves oil usage is going to fail, its only a matter of time.
so disappointed in the race this year. ugh.

OP
oh, they're a pain in the ass, but if you stop paying attention it goes from a free-for-all to a dictatorship
