12. As long as the corporations have dibs on our congress critters.

It'll continue. As long as people keep supporting the corporations, they can keep supporting our politicians, and the circle while continue to spiral down til its all gone.
I'll never understand how a self-professed Christian politician could vote against any assistance to the poor. Seems like a pretty simple internal dialogue.
"Hey Jesus! Should I vote for helping the least among us or not? No? How about for more death machines? Yes? Sweet! Thanks JC!"
