(3,441 posts)That's what it's going to take. The powers that be in this country are so far beyond corrupt that a revolution is what it is going to take to correct it. Those of you waiting for Nancy Pelosi or a new Democratic president to fix everything are going to be disappointed. They still sing the praises of capitalism. Capitalism is what got us to this point. Capitalism can be good just like any other economic philosophy. But, the unbridled capitalism that we're experiencing today is unsustainable.
Fascism, coupled with unbridled capitalism, can be a giant wedge with the people. Just watch Focksnooze. We have to finally decide just what kind of society we want to raise our children in. The children being held in cages were told this is the place to live in a good society.
So far, all that's been proven to them is that coming to America is a larger nightmare than what they left.
I wish I had all the answers but, I do know one thing. Human beings should not have the right to treat other human beings in a demeaning fashion. Especially if you are fortunate or had the opportunity to acquire great wealth. Everyone alive deserves to live their one life with dignity. They all deserve at least one opportunity to shine.
