It’s no secret that almost every Republican President was on the side of Big Business. Yes, there were two Presidents who waged a small war against Big Business and they were Teddy Roosevelt and Richard Nixon.
Roosevelt refused to seek a second term after becoming President by assassination and pursued other work for the progressive Group of the Republican Party. Richard Nixon was betrayed by his Party after he paved the way to China only because he also imposed price and wage controls against Big Business and put an end to the killing of our soldiers in Viet Nam.
Then too, we had one President who went that extra mile for Big Business, and that was Ronald Reagan. Apparently he didn’t like Labor Unions. If you remember, he fired all of our air traffic controllers after they went on strike for better working conditions. You see, an eighty hour work week was too much for some of our air traffic controllers. By the way, our air traffic controllers are still desperate for more help.
So Too, he did nothing about the loss of millions of jobs because Big Business found cheaper labor forces outside of our Country that weren’t protected by organized Labor Unions. Clearly, Ronald Reagan wasn’t a President for the Majority within our Country.
If he was, he would have quarantined New York City when the A.I.D.S. virus struck that place and has since killed millions of people. Yes, he passed that buck to his surgeon general who did nothing more than tell everyone to wear a condom. I wonder what he did that was so great for the Majority? Please tell me because I really would like to know.
