AN ABOMINATION
No thanks. I get my rocks-off "bitching about the wealthy". Why?
Because, fellow American (yup!), you've forgot history - if you ever even learned it.
We fought a bloody revolution to get the British land-owning monarchy (and his aristocratic toads) off our backs. And, WOW!, here's the modern version back in place! We have allowed the formation of Dynastic Monarchies, richer than Croesus, who (with their ill got after-tax Income) want to maintain the Money-Pump that gushes up to Wealth:
For what reason? To pass it on to their young! In fact, we are so besotted with the idea of Unlimited Riches Inheritance, that we are thinking seriously of electing one of those who inherited $40M as PotUS! How silly can a nation get? Watch this space in November!
In a country with 15% of our fellow Americans incarcerated below the Poverty Threshold and Replicants who don't even want a decent Minimum Wage, we have retrograded as a nation to where we were 250 years ago before the Revolution.
Yes, I want Another Revolution - a peaceful one won at the ballot-box that corrects the wrongs done by the Reagan Administration. Which I find are an abomination upon mankind for any civilized nation.
We can go to the moon, but we can't care a fig for 40 million fellow Yanks who live in poverty.
And we, the sheeple, are supposedly a God-fearing people who adore the principle of "fair-play" as a Christian-ethic?
Me arse, we do ...
