U.S. House Speaker Boehner Signs On to Tax Deal
Amateur hour. It's amazing how people who are supposed to do "politics" for a living, and manage somehow to rise to the "national" level of such things (allegedly the Major Leagues), can be so bad at it. So I'm forced to conclude they're being paid to play their part in the Bread and Circus charade until someone can prove to me otherwise.
That's pretty much what it is. The entire government has been co-opted by corporate lobbies as it is. Eventually the entire global economic system will be run for the benefit of internal corporations.
