(2,741 posts)who talked about feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, housing the homeless, and healing the sick? Replaced by the morally reprehensible leaders of America who feed the greed of the 1% and ignore the myriad problems in their country, especially anything adversely affecting the poor, the uneducated, the needy. These leaders (?) spend most of their time collecting money from the greedy bastards who actually control the governments of the country: federal, state, and local.
If these leaders, including the president, cared about the hungry, the naked, the homeless, the sick...they could solve the problems rather quickly. Stop building useless war machines, close the Pentagon by combining all military services into one Army, close the useless bases around the world, close all the military playgrounds maintained around the world (includes resorts and golf courses), and spend the money instead to provide for the needs of all people in America. In other words, kill the military-industrial complex that Ike warned about decades ago.
Yes, I fully understand the greedy bastards will never do this. America will continue its role as a third-world country. This outcome is the end plan of corporatists, including Hillary Clinton.
