...Head Start, the National Institute of Health and everything else that helps ordinary Americans, THEN will the Republicans be happy? My guess: No. They'll still want the gold in your teeth.

2. Until we are living in shanties on their properties picking their cotton like good little slaves...
...they will not be happy. We shouldn't want health care. We shouldn't want a living wage. We shouldn't want anything but to work hard, shut up and know our place.

11. They'll take our teeth too, like George Washington did to his slaves.
Okay, supposedly he bought them, but I'd have to see the documents to believe that one.

3. No they still would not be happy
Their masters the uber rich would not let them stop until the masters have it all.

When we the people have nothing left, they will start devouring their own from the bottom up, it will not be safe to even be a multi-millionaire. Only billions will be safe from the republican wrath, then when they are all broke, it will move up the food chain until one has it all.

8. Pubs want to destroy every program that supports the general welfare to fund further tax cuts for
large corporations and the uber-wealthy. What conclusion can be drawn from this virulent depravity, other than they are willing to destroy this Republic to get their demands met and, if met, the Republic will still destroyed as a result for the social fabric of the nation will re irreparably unraveled. :patriot:
