Since it probably isn't visible, it says, "Remember when teachers, public employees, Planned Parenthood, NPR and PBS crashed the stock market, wiped out half of our 401Ks, took trillions in taxpapyer funded bailouts, spilled oil in the Gulf of Mexico, gave themselves billions in bonuses, and paid no taxes?  Yeah, me neither...pass it on."

Alrighty, then.  That's quite a laundry list.  So, let's start at the beginning:

Remember when teachers

Paid by taxes.

public employees

Paid by taxes.

Planned Parenthood

Supported in part by taxes, and a 501(c)3 that pays no taxes.

NPR and PBS

Supported in part by taxes, and federal corporations that pay no taxes, but whine for tax-deductible donations.

crashed the stock market

I keep bearing from the left about how morally wrong the stock market is, and how it just leads to concentration of wealth and short-sighted marketing. So I sense hypocrisy.

wiped out half of our 401Ks

Aren't these the same groups that complain about 401Ks being unfair and elitist?

took trillions in taxpapyer funded bailouts

Well, it's taken years, but the above groups HAVE had at least billions if not trillions of taxpayer funds.  So it seems to be the scale and efficiency of the business world they're complaining about, yet again.

spilled oil in the Gulf of Mexico

By passing ridiculous, unscientific "eco" and "green" laws that meant oil wells couldn't operate in shallow water using proven technology, but had to move to the edge of the continental shelf and push to the limits to get oil that these same people use in their SUVs, airliners and plastic packaging?  Yes, I do.

gave themselves billions in bonuses, and paid no taxes? 

As above, yes, I do.

Yeah, me neither...pass it on.

You know, maybe if you smoke a little less dope, your memory and reason will return.
