One word describes the Left-Hypocrites.
 
the radical/religious right is slowly but surely losing to the radical left. unless they find a new source of adherents, their party will evaporate in the next couple of decades.

the repugs will have to rethink who will become their base or lose wherever they have not rigged the polling and even that will not last more than a decade or two with a constantly dwindling base if insufficient modifications are not made to their political positions

not to mention the likelihood of losing court battles...that and the likelihood of the dims finding counter moves to the voter id scams and deliberate understaffing of voting facilities

Doctors? Yeah....it's sad....they can't even feed their kids.

Labor Unions? Ok.... seems to me that labor, banding together to have negotiating clout is a good thing.

But that's right....you are a Koch sucker. In your mind, the only people who deserve a decent life are businessmen....and they can do whatever the fuck they want.

I believe everybody deserves a decent shot in life. I also believe that everybody shouldn't be made equal in the name of social justice except for an elite ruling class.


What's the problem you have with business men? Business men work very hard to get where they're at in society especially small business operators.

So....your "elite ruling class" are the only people who are allowed to be equal and the rest of us bow down to their greatness? How totalitarian of you....that's Plutocracy.....No thanks....I've seen what Plutocracy has done over the past three decades.....it sucks....well, not for the Plutocrats themselves....They've never had it better.....but for most of the country....it sucks.

What do I have against Businessmen? Well....it depends. If you are Joe Schmoe the Plumber and have 10 employees who go out and do jobs(produce)? Nothing at all.

But if you are a monopolistic entity with little to no viable competition, and you are constantly throwing money at elected officials' campaign coffers to keep it that way, or you are a vulture Capitalist who has enough power to buy an existing business, gut the employees and move the entire works over to China for $.50/hr labor and no benefits....then complain that the workers that just lost their jobs are nothing but lazy "takers"? A lot.
