Breathing Is A Privilege And Not A Right To The GOP.

[TheMastersNemesis]

Add up all the policies the GOP pushes and will push now that they are in control and you will realize they believe that "breathing is a privilege". You have no rights to anything whatsoever if you cannot pay for it. You have no right to a job, due process, health care, food, shelter, clothing or anything unless you have MONEY.

You must beg, grovel, or earn anything that will sustain you. And if you are unfortunate enough where you cannot compete in the market place then too bad. If you fall on bad times you dig yourself out. Of course if you are rich then you are ENTITLED to everything.

We are now in a country that has really lost its way and its soul.

3. The almighty dollar.

I think the best thing we poorfolk can do to survive (to some extent) is to stop using money, we don't have much anyway. There is a strong barter system if you seek it out... if money loses it's value, we might have a chance. The other thing to do is educate potential police officers and military recruits about how their lives are being controlled and how they would be using force against their neighbors and family, might get them to refuse to be brutal fuckwads when the fascists start really abusing us.

Just a couple ideas, not that any of that will happen in time to stop this end times agenda.

4. Right to life but no right to remain alive

Got it.

5. They are like the Ferengi - everything for profit.

The Ferengi have a culture which is based entirely upon commerce. They follow a code of conduct known as "The Ferengi Rules of Acquisition." These rules ordain conduct such as "Never place family before business." Reportedly these rules are subject to interpretation depending upon the situation. Plea bargaining is a legal tradition, as is the purchasing of an apprenticeship following the Attainment Ceremony. There is no distinction between business and pleasure in Ferengi culture.

Money is expected to accompany every interchange of life, even private visits to family and friends' homes and government business. Quark pays ... to get admission into his own mother's home, as well as sign off on legal waivers there.

6. Exactly, and they've even got most churches believing this shit, so no help there,

either. The random Catholic or UU church or independent congregation will do what they've always done -- run a small food pantry, give out clothing to the homeless, etc. -- but that's it.
