    Obviously, big business has politicians and policy makers on its strings. Why else would government serve the rich and not the voters?
     
  4. It was not for Edward Snowden...I had no idea to the extent of the evil in this world. It's not good enough that you are super rich, have everything.

    But when you abuse, torture and hurt children.... That is F--k--g it!!!!!!
    And nobody has the balls to stand up to these cowards!!!!

    Let me tell you something.
    It takes 5 cents to get rid of the so called "powerful".

    I guess people have families and are afraid.

    Justin Trudeau the f---in ped.

    The no good media run by those filthy , con artist , cowards.

    All lies, lies, lies

    The Clinton's....my God.
