The For Profit Repuke Society [View all]

I have major problems with this. Children's education should not be profit oriented. The disabled, children or adult, should not be profit oriented. The incarcerated should not be profit oriented. The sick and the elderly should not be profit oriented. While I am not religious, I feel all this is IMMORAL. Yet, the Repukes think everything in our society should be PROFIT oriented, even for the most vulnerable of our population.

I find this despicable. Profits should not be made with the most needy of our society. I guess this the basic issue which separates us from them.
