A term describing the faulty logic of Reaganomics. Also known as trickle down, the theory is that if you reduce income (i.e. cut taxes) then you somehow generate more revenue. Obviously, this is not rational thinking.
The proof that this did not work (as if anyone needed it) is the fact that the national debt tripled during the Reagan Administration.

An early 2010 decision by the U.S. Supreme eliminated limits on campaign donations from corporations. This decision lead to corporations declaring holy war on incumbent Democrats. Big corporations spent HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS on Republican campaigns, mostly through secret "non-profit" organizations and 527 groups. With the help of these unlimited corporate donations, the G.O.P. outspent Democrats 10 to 1. Unfortunately for America, the 2010 Election will go down in history as the nasiest and most expensive mid-term election ever (so far.)
The Corporate Jihad in 2010 lead to the Republicans gaining a controlling majority interest in Congress and an increased minority share of the Senate. The only real winner in this election was the media and advertising firms.

In 2010, Tony Hayward is the C.E.O. of BP. While presiding over the worst environmental disaster in American history, the bp oil spill, this money grubbing scum showed not only his incompetence but his total lack of conscience. The Deep Horizon oil rig blew up and killed 11 people working there and then the millions of gallons of oil set out to ruin the Gulf Coast and the lives of thousands of Americans!
Then after several weeks of "trying to find a solution," Hayward actually had the gall to say "I just want my life back!"

Tony Hayward will go down in history as the leader of the company that ruined the Gulf of Mexico and devastated the lives of thousands of Americans!

At term to describe the sad state of politics America in the 21st century.
With the increasing influence of talk radio and so-called new commentators, there is more vitriolic argumenting and shouting than ever. People like Sarah Palin,Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Ann Coulter and Mike Savage are ranting and raving like complete idiots. These people tear down and make up lies about people they disagree with rather than offer any solutions to the problems we face.
This toxic political atmosphere is making political campaigns longer, meaner, dirtier and more expensive every year.

Toxic political discourse is creating a lot of tension, flustration and violence, but few solutions. We need to tone down the hostility in Washington, on the radio and on cable TV, before we destroy ourselves.

Republican party minions, Bushnesiacs, racist rednecks and other fuckwits that for whatever reason attack President Barack Obama. After suffering for 8 long years under the worst president ever (George W Bush) Obama is busy trying to undo the damage caused by the bush administration. However some bushtard fuckwits like the status quo--high unemployment, high foreclosure rates, out of control healthcare costs and on going clusterfucks in the Middle East.
These sick fuck republitards would rather see the country go down in flames than admit Bush was wrong and help Obama fix the mess we're in!!!!!

Obama Bashers are in an all-out battle to prevent President Obama from fixing the clusterfucked disaster Bush left behind! Republican Party minions are disrupting townhall meetings, spreading lies and rumors and even submitting bullshit definitions on Urban Dictionary!
It's easy to pick out a UD def submitted by a republican party minion, there are several exactly alike and most are by "authors" that only have one entry.

Kind of like Satan worshippers, only more open and less into rituals. Seriously, there are members of the Republican Party that worship the second worst president ever! (after GW Bush) The republitards invoke his name in debates and even Bush43 said he wanted to be just like Reagan.
The Reagan Administration caused serious, long-term damage to this country--reagannomics, tripled debt, "star wars," union bashing, education cuts, pro-business/anti-worker policies and creating the Taliban to fight the Soviet Union in Afganistan! Yet Republicans still think he's great. WTF?!

The G.O.P. is full of Reagan worshippers, some of these sick fucks actually wanted to desecrate Mount Rushmore with a Reagan memorial! WTF?!! Now 20 years after the end of the Reagan era (but not the end of the negative impact), the Republitards in congress are talking about putting Reagan's picture on coins and/or paper money!

The amount of money American taxpayers have pay to cover the taxes Walmart avoids. This term also applies to the increased drain on taxpayer funded programs by underpaid and uninsured Walmart employees.
Walmart sets up stores in buildings they "rent" from their own shell companies. They pay "rent" to themselves, then deduct it from their taxes. This money grubbing scum scheme helped Walmart avoid $3.39 Billion in state taxes from 1999-2005.
Also taxpayers will pay $9.1 Billion over the next 5 years to cover Walmart employee health care costs. They have almost 800,000 workers without health care coverage. Many of Walmart's employees are forced to use Medicaid or just show up at an emergancy room. This kind of bullshit taxes us all by increasing the cost of healthcare for all of us!

The Walmart tax hurts the whole economy and helps keep them rich while shifting the costs to the people. Their Pro-China attitude towards merchandise hurts American jobs and their heinous tax avoidance schemes also hurt America's bottom line! Here's the real cost of the WalMart Tax-- If WalMart paid all of the taxes they owed in 2005: 318,440 uninsured children would have health coverage; 21,963 elementary school students would have new classrooms; and 9,499 additional police officers could be patrolling our streets! "SAVE MONEY--LIVE BETTER," obviously this doesn't really apply to the shoppers only to the Walmart corporation!
