… PRIVATE JETS HEADED TO THE SWISS ALPS

|| By FITSNEWS ||  In case you missed it (and judging from recent elections, you did), your money has been stolen by politicians and delivered to the uber-wealthy.

No really … they did that.  Repeatedly.

But don’t worry … while you struggle to make ends meet here in the “recovering” United States of America, your leaders and the super-rich people they keep subsidizing with your money are flying off on more than 1,700 private jets to Davos, Switzerland for the so-called “World Economic Forum.”

The cost of an hour aboard one of these planes?  Between $10,000 – $15,000, which means if you’re an average American income earner they will have spent what you make in a year before they even land.

What are they doing there?  Discussing income inequality, of course … over $45 hamburgers and $43 hot dogs.

Oh, and global warming … they’re also discussing global warming.  Because nothing says sensitivity for the environment like 1,700 fossil fuel-burning private jets (oh, and hundreds of fossil fuel-burning helicopters).

“This is supposed to be the World Economic Forum, but it is all about them manipulating society and the great unwashed – us,” one critic noted.

We agree …

Forty heads of state and more than 2,000 top business executives made the trip to the Alpine resort destination – including U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and former vice president Al Gore.  The conference began on Wednesday and runs through Saturday.

“This event is an extraordinary opportunity and keeps its validity because it’s able to attract so many interesting people from the world of business and government and other communities for a relatively informal and open conversation,” one attendee told USA Today.

Wasn’t Will ‘FitsNews’gushing about his invite to look inside of a mega rich asshole’s (who our wealth has been redistributed to for decades) private jet just earlier this week? Followed up by a few more shamelessly sucking up articles? What’s the matter, did ‘The Donald’ brush you off like every other politician who’s ass you try to kiss?

Not everybody is as crooked as the republicans when it comes to suppressing and distorting voting rights. Most people would do just fine. The republicans need the electoral college as another means of potential manipulation when they fail, yet again, to win the White House.

Republicans won’t support eliminating the electoral college until Texas turns blue, at which point they’ll be demanding it be torn down immediately.

It’s like how they want to abolish the 17th amendment. Gerrymandering works so well for state legislatures and the House of Representatives, why can’t we open up the Senate to the same kind of corruption?

Reply
Jack January 23, 2015 at 2:10 pm

The Republicans will never agree to one man one vote. That would be a disaster for them. Al Gore received more votes than George Bush in 2000. Democrats received more votes than Republicans in 2014. If the Electoral College had been abolished in 2000, think of the disaster that would have ensued. No Iraq war. No Bush recession.
No one can really explain the benefit of the electoral college. All it does is take away the vote of the minority in each state. Even the Republicans only believe in it, if it benefits them. The Republican party in a number of Blue states is trying to change the rule to have the electors from those states selected by Congressional District. A reform I admit is more fair than the current system. Yet the Republican parties in the red states are adamantly opposed to that reform. Typical of Republicans they just want to change the rules to benefit them

Social media to be banned for state employees while working

COLUMBIA, S.C. Don’t plan on using Facebook while on your state job.

Using social media will be banned, starting in July, when state workers will be subject to a new code of conduct.

The rules – which cover far more than social media – are intended to instill public confidence in state government.

Some agencies restricted Facebook access years ago.
There is no Constitutional right to have government (or private employer) provided entertainment during work hours.
State agencies could have gotten rid of a lot of bad workers over the past 10+ years if they had monitored personal use of public computer equipment and systems and followed state rules about their misuse.
Every taxpayer, every agency client, the functioning of every agency would be better off if they had. Just proves the problem with agencies is the failure of the management to manage.
