That’s gonna make for an awful lot of human suffering. Awful. But it Might be worth it if he’s one of the 50,000 laid off?

Charlie, you need to be laid off...are you going to join the Socialist Party in 2015, since you'll lose...

Rick Scott is good, not great, but better then Charlie and Jeb...

Idiocracy America now is.

When any zombie can vote, what kind of future is there?

Alcee hastings (only cap’d A because of sentence start) was elected as my “rep” by the zombies who inhabit Broward county FL. It’s right next to dws’s also gerry-mandered zone.

I feel like Darrell in TWD sometimes. Have a crossbow and compound bow too. Not a bad shot either.

Lose 50K votes, gain 6 million....do the math. The new poorer will probably vote that way too as he will promise more aid as well.
