#WETHEPEOPLE #POLITICSOFFEAR #MN #TEAPARTY Governor Dayton sent Shutdown notices to Vulnerable adults: Steams on w/ #Vikings Stadium Public Financing Plans.

What is going on here? In response to the budget impasse, Mn Governor Dayton has proposed stopping the funding of vulnerable adults. They have received notices to expect to be cut off.

Some cannot even understand what that mean. Some have reacted negatively. Some have reacted with rage. The shutdown even includes their medicine.

Many of these folks live in group homes and facilities. Are their families going to have to go and pick them up and deal with unmedicated, sometimes violent, vulnerable adults.

I thought the Democrat Party was the Party for the little guy and the disadvantaged.

It appears hear that the Democrat Party of Minnesota has put Party Politics over the best interests of their core constituents...

Do they not realize that the stress, fear and anxiety they are causing these folks and their relatives is real? This is not some game. These people should not be ruthlessly treated like pawns in party politics.

Don't think this is simple politics being played by Governor Dayton? He has also proposed shutting down the Lottery, the Zoo and the Parks.

Before i say more, if these last 3 mentioned shutdowns are money losers, shut them down..

But the Lottery? Why would you shut down this huge money maker? Revenue that will be lost forever, when we have a 5 billion dollar deficit? THIS JUST SMACKS OF DOING THINKS FOR POLITICAL ADVANTAGE AND NOT IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE STATE.

The Zoo? If it doesn't make a profit or breakeven, shut it down.
The Parks? If they don't make a profit or breakeven, shut them down.

But in this economy, people are cutting back on traveling... They are utilizing the parks and other local venues to keep the costs of traveling and vacations down.

If the parks and Zoo breakeven or make a profit and Governor Dayton has shut them down, he has done it to deliberately injure and incense the people of Minnesota for the purpose of ruthless and reckless political gain.

It appears Governor Dayton is managing the herd according to Edward Bernays Style manipulation http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0OrT-8gXMs . He is deliberately injuring, incensing and inflaming his own constituents to get them to demand higher taxes and fewer budget cuts.

And later, he will blame the fear, hate and injury he and the Democrats inflicted on their own constituents, on the Republican Party.

Wake up Liberals and Democrats... Do you not see your own alleged representatives are deliberately injuring and manipulating for their own selfish political gains?

And i am almost as harsh with Republicans on other issues as I am with the Democrats, because I don't like being manipulated.

Where are the leaders? Who will unite WE THE PEOPLE to confront this adversity? Who will challenge us all to make sacrifices so we can manage and get past this economic down turn?

Why are the Republicans and Democrats dividing us with Rhetoric instead of uniting us to withstand this misfortune?

Wake up Minnesota and America! Think for yourselves. Stop letting political Parties think for you!

The overwhelming majority of WE THE PEOPLE are more alike than we are different.

Stop letting yourselves be managed and manipulated like a herd of cattle. Reach out to your friends, neighbors and coworkers and seek common ground and common understanding to see us through our common adversity.

Sorry for my rant.

Those were my thoughts.
