Does the GOP really want an end to human decency in America? [View all]

Here’s their agenda:

Screw jobs. Everyone for themselves.

Screw healthcare. Everyone for themselves.

Screw education. Everyone for themselves.

Screw children and seniors in need. Everyone for themselves.

Screw veterans. Screw minorities. Screw immigrants. Screw non-“Christians.” Screw liberals. Screw the impoverished. And screw what’s left of the middle class.

I’ve left much out, but you get the idea.

The GOP and far too many Democratic politicians are beholden only to those who fund their campaigns. That’s all they care about – their owners and themselves.

And yes, OWS and many groups and organizations are doing whatever is possible to bring about change.

But here's the real issue: How the hell did we end up in this sewer? Were so many of us so wrong in our beliefs regarding human decency? Beats me. What do you think?
