Reply #6: It is no secret that Republicans don't care

[Malva Zebrina]

Reagan closed up the psychiatric hospitals and all of those people were left to wander the streets. That is when we started seeing homeless, wandering people sleeping in doorways--needing help desperately.

There is no help from the Republicans. They are so jealous of their money, that they are not, godammit, going to give any hand outs to anyone.

It is a class thing, as well as a greed thing.

They do give their money to corporations willingly and to other countries that we support in their ethnic cleansings.

Doesn't matter because what is behind that is racism and class eltitism. There is no compassion at all.

I once spoke to a wealthy woman who took a nice wealthy vacation to Hawaii--and her complaint was that there was a homeless person who had the nerve to sleep on a bench near the beach, ruining her vacation.

People should pull themselves up by the bootstraps and if they can't they deserve to die in doorways.

Sharing or contributing to the well being of all citizens, their health and etc, parses to "hand outs" They are not capable of understanding that a healthy society contributes more to their own welfare-

If you own a business it is to your advantage to have educated, and healthy people working for you-their bigotry is so pronounced that they fail to see the forest for the trees. Imagine if one of those homeless were capable of being another Einstein?
