It all comes back to Ronald fucking Reagan. Yes, the actor. Fuck.

Jack Welch, former GE CEO and current free gravestone urinal had a lot to do with changing corporate culture to completely abandon the pretense of societal responsibility as well.

Ronald Reagan was an actor. Not at all a factor, Just an employee of the country's real masters. Just like the Bushes, Clinton and Obama, Just another talkin' head tellin' lies on teleprompters.

The Bushes have a dynasty of their own. I'm sure they're fine with selling some favors, but they mostly pushed their own agenda, oil. Oil profits at all costs. That and finishing what daddy started.

Ronald Reagan! The actor? Then who's vice-president, Jerry Lewis? I suppose Jane Wyman is the First Lady! And Jack Benny is Secretary of the Treasury!
