Why Ultra-Conservatives Like the Sequester

2. Thanks. This is what I keep saying. They're not stupid, not ignorant, not crazy.

They won't be hurt by the Sequester, instead they will profit from it. And have been working on it or something like it for decades. Democrats, liberals and progressives keep on trashing each other over what they consider noble ideas.

We are face to face with millions who could care less. We fail to unite so they overwhelm us, again and again. As one of our European members explained how the Nazis took over Germany.

The non-fascists all argued with each other and wouldn't form a coalition so the Nazis took over legally. This is what is happening here, yet we won't unite. It's serious with those who are working to privatize and destroy the last vestiges of the social democracy we enjoyed for years.

Many will not survive in the next few decades if we don't work with the imperfect to push back. But those who are so bitterly divided now will not shed a tear when it happens because of hatred. At least that is the most negative path. We can do better than allow this to happen.
