It took me almost 60 years to figure it out
the wealthy, rich and capitalist are my enemy.
When a secretary pays more in taxes than a congressman
When corp/businesses pay no taxes (yet use our roads, water, etc)
When business contaminates our air and water and kills us in that process.
Business legally murders labor (BP explosion and mine "accidents" are just one example)while those that own the means of poduction live and live well. Most of the accidents are caused by not observing saftey requirements. Costs too much money you know, just take a chance of killing workers.
Leona Helmsley said it clearly "why should I have to pay taxes only the little man does".
Walmart and other businesses take out life insurance policies of their "peasants" and when those workers die the BUSINESS gets the insurance money.
So the RW (monied and the stupid) want government out of business. Here comes polluted water, air. contaminated RX. God forbid! Someone should watch over and control the business enitity.
Dentists don't want to serve welfare people because it doesn't pay them enough, but don't let government make programs to service the poor and low-income. You might not get your last ounce of blood (money) out of the poor. Within the last 2 years in the south people came by the droves for medical care in ANIMAL STALLS! jobs are not available to earn one's keep and you do not want government programs to take care of those pushed against the wall. I used to think this was a great nation...now I see the evil the RW is so willing to do to the common man. We've allowed businesses to go into other countries and pollute their water and air so they get sick and die. What the hell are you demons? When a system cannot take care of its citizens something is wrong with the system and it is time to get rid of it and try something else.
