We the People are no more

We the people believed in our right to seek justice, liberty, and happiness,  

We the People believed that our government sworn to "promote the general welfare" and "insure domestic tranquility" remembered these words from our Constitution.

Alas, our elected officials never read them!  

The outcry throughout this nation by the 99% has been persistent in demanding transparency in this 'tax' bill.  Instead we have been scammed.

And you elected Republicans, lead by the Pied Pipers of Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell, taking away the economic survival of so many, will indeed be front and center  as we, the people, pipe you over the cliff, along with your minions in the 2018 elections.
