Spelling It All Out
“The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal
sharing of blessings. The inherent virtue of Socialism
is the equal sharing of miseries.”

Winston Churchill, House of Commons, 22 October 1945.

Studies have shown that if you're wealthy in America
you probably had wealthy parents.
Yeah, we have the odd anomaly like Bill Gates, the
Google lads, or Steve Jobs but they rode the crest
of Big Wave of technology that hit in the 1970s. Click

I'd like to offer a huge note of THANKS! to all the
federal workers who stayed on the job over the course
of that ridiculous government shutdown.
That being said, the moment Trump does Shutdown II
please walk off the job immediately. Thank you.

A man shoots and kills 58 people in Las Vegas but authorities
find no motive and close the case.
The hell with "motive".
There's no motive when a tiger eats you.
There's no motive when a cobra bites you.
There's no motive when a rabid dog attacks you.
We're chimps with guns. This is not hard to figure
out.
And chimps never leave suicide notes, even when it's
clear that a particular mass shooting was not a sudden,
impetuous act. Right?
My firm belief is that there is almost always a manifesto
left behind, however short. But these are never, ever
released to the public because the last thing we want
to give all the other chimps with guns is a relatable
rationale to which they can, some dark day, embrace
as precedence.
We'll always be animals who will find a way to kill
its kin, neighbors, or complete strangers. Can't we
at least slow the death rate down a little by banning
rapid-fire murder machines? Is that really too much
to ask?

Conservative's say Medicare For All will destroy the
insurance industry.
Well, yeah, but....
There'd still be auto insurance, home insurance, life
insurance, etc. The insurance business would be just
fine.
There's no reason for individual health insurance.
It's a scam designed to shift your money to the pockets
of insurance CEOs. And the higher the prices for health
care the more yachts they can buy. It's a death spiral
that results in YOUR death.
We need Medicare For All.

I keep hearing from conservatives sources that Hillary
Clinton lost the election because black voters didn't
respond like they did for Mr. Obama.
Let me remind everyone that in 2012 the Voting Rights
Act hadn't yet been gutted by the SCOTUS.
-----------
The Texas AG saying 58,000 non-citizens voted in Texas
since 1996 is exactly like saying every Texas citizen
who's had sex since 1996 was a virgin because they
were virgins in 1996.
-----------
When No-Collusion McTwatfaffle had the fealty of both
houses of Congress he was a hell of a negotiator....
at least according to Fox News. But now that the House
is blue suddenly he has no interest in legislation,
because he's having to converse with adults and he
doesn't possess the necessary language skills. The
bills Nancy Pelosi is going to place in front of his
adderalled head might as well be in Chinese.
So it'll be shutdown-this and emergency-that until
Mueller finally frog-marches him out of the White House.

One last thing: IMPEACH THE MOTHERFUCKER!"
