The Republican party would bring back chattel slavery if they could.

1. They want us to die, my friend

AGAINST Social Security
AGAINST Civil Rights
AGAINST Helping the poor
AGAINST Affordable health care

I used to listen to a talk host many years ago who would draw parallels with the Nazis and the Republican Party-he used to say the only difference was the Nazis killed you outright, while the Republicans preferred killing you by inches

2. Remember that House Presentation

by Alan Grayson (I know, he ended up to be a bad dude) - but his point about health care was that the Republicans want us to die - and die quickly. Still pretty spot-on.

3. Yes, I remember

And he was right.

4. No, they'd have to feed and house slaves, maybe provide medical care to keep them working.

Better to pay slave wages and let their workers fend for themselves.

6. They just want tp keep everyone poor and hungry enough...

To keep showing up to slave labor jobs and not be able to do anything about the tyranny.

Letting the little people vote is what scares them because it gives us the power to undo them.

7. Spot on.That way you can go on believing it's a free country, even as you continue letting people...

...be perfectly free to sleep in their cars with their children while working 3 jobs.

5. A solution to their labor and diversity "problems" and a means

of returning todays' greedy white working class to the extreme poverty typical of southern slave-era whites in one. It's impossible, but if it where possible they would. We know that.

As it is, they could do dreadful harm to all.
