4. 'Divide & Conquer'...Stale and outdated tactics....like Boner's party!

For centuries, those who aspired to power or held power have employed the political, military and economic strategy of “divide and conquer.” This consists of breaking up larger concentrations of power into pieces that alone have less power than the individual using the strategy, while preventing smaller groups of power from aligning.

Nobody can accuse Republicans of reinventing the wheel. This method of gaining and maintaining power is not new, but its effectiveness is proven. Today, it is being used to take hardworking men and women, whose interests lie in one another’s success, and turn them against each other. This is illustrated most strikingly in the war being waged across the country against teachers. As a result, we have blue-collar workers, as well as parents who don’t have the resources to send their children to parochial schools, cheering the ongoing attacks on our institutions of public education and the teachers who are expected to impart knowledge and wisdom to our sons and daughters.
