His body is nearly turned sideways, chin lifted and grinning at the camera, resting his weight on his right elbow with his left hand clasped loosely over his resting right wrist. Italicized text upon this propaganda poster reads: “RONALD REAGAN speaks out against SOCIALIZED MEDICINE”]

    A C-List actors career flopped, now I have to pay 30% of my check in taxes so the ultra wealthy can go tax free in the hopes that their prosperity with reflect positively on me, instead of just making them ritcher as they horde their wealth.

    The fact that the greatest nation on earth had such dumbass actors presidents, is the only proof I need for the existence of the Illuminati, and their desire to pupeeteer some tv-personality they put on the throne

      I think unfortunately the “illuminati” is a lot more boring than that. It’s just a group of career ladder climbers hell bent on staying close to power and/or those who wield it.

      We like to think the only people that would do something like that would be evil men and women part of secret societies with global ambitions but it’s just these greedy fuckers who need validation in a way none of us could ever dream of.
