In Case You Missed It: Republicans opposed to standardized drug testing.

[Half-Century Man]

Yes for thee, nay for me

"Today was a mockery. If we truly believe this isn't demoralizing, dehumanizing to the people we're asking to do something, we should be able to lead by example and go first. And you ran from it. I don't know how you're going to be able to sleep tonight."

--Rep. Andy Jorgensen, D-Milton, on Republicans supporting a bill that would require food stamp recipients to be drug tested but rejecting amendments requiring legislators and corporations that receive tax breaks from getting the same treatment

1. repugs have a war on women and a war on the working poor and a war on the poor

2. An actual war where the death of these people is the goal

3. I'm thinking their desires are something other than death of the disempowered.

They want the return of rule by landed gentry.
All the worst of England's Victorian Era; poor Houses, child labor, debtor's prison, indentured servitude, etc. But instead of it being the "white man's burden" to lead (with or without the consent of the followers) it is now the "rich man's burden" to drag us all into line.

Our world and every country in it are colonization targets of multinational corporations.

they are making MAD amounts of money on these victims of neglect.
dead people are harder to collect on.
