MY BIGGEST GRIPE WITH REPUBLICANS IS THEIR CLAIM TO BE "RESPECTABLE"...
MOST REPUBLICANS THINK OF THEMSELVES AS "MARRIED, WORKING, CHURCH GOING WHITE FOLKS...WHO ARE NOT WELL EDUCATED"
AND THEREFORE "RESPECTABLE..."
SO WHY DO PEOPLE LIKE MYSELF SEE THEM AS "PURE EVIL"...?
GOOD QUESTION:
HERE'S THE ANSWER:
THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS THE PARTY OF WALL STREET AND INTERNATIONAL CAPITAL...
INTERNATIONAL CAPITAL HAS LOOTED THE AMERICAN ECONOMY AND SHIPPED IT TO ASIA...MOSTLY TO CHINA...AND MOSTLY FOR THE CHEAP LABOR
THIS HAS CREATED A TRADE AND JOBS DEFICIT THAT IS DRAINING AMERICA OF THE RESOURCES THAT CREATED THE POSTWAR MIDDLE CLASS...
SOME IN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY THINK PURE VIRTUE AND HARD WORK ARE BEHIND THEIR "SUCCESS"... OR WHATEVER IT IS THEY VALUE...
AND THAT OTHERS ARE THEREFORE "JUST LAZY..."
THE PROBLEM IS THAT ON A MACRO LEVEL THIS IS NOT TRUE...OPPORTUNITIES ARE SHRINKING...THE ECONOMIC NUMBERS SHOW THIS...AS MORE AND MORE AMERICAN CAPITAL IS SHIPPED OFF SHORE...WITH AMERICAN JOBS BEING THE BIGGEST EXPORT TO CHINA...
ODDLY MANY "RESPECTABLE REPUBLICANS" ARE UNIONIZED GOVERNMENT WORKERS...WHO HAVE BEEN MORE OR LESS IMMUNE FROM THE EFFECTS OF OFF SHORING...UNTIL THE RECENT CUTS...
HERE'S THE PROBLEM:
IF THE SPENDING CUTS AND OFF SHORING HAVE NOT EFFECTED YOU YET... THAT IS STRICTLY A MATTER OF CHANCE... LUCK REALLY....
ULTIMATELY A DEPRESSION FOR YOUR NEIGHBOR IS YOUR DEPRESSION TOO...!
PROOF...? TRIED TO SELL YOUR HOUSE LATELY...?
HOW MUCH IS IT WORTH NOW...EVEN IF YOU MAKE YOUR PAYMENTS AND YOUR NEIGHBOR IS IN FORECLOSURE...
THE "CHURCH GOING" ASPECT OF REPUBLICAN RESPECTABILITY...IS ANNOYING TO THE INTELLECTUALS AND MANY "EDUCATED" PEOPLE...
BECAUSE CHURCH TEACHING IS SEEN AS ESSENTIALLY A DENIAL OF SCIENCE... WE SEE THIS IN THE "CREATIONIST" NONSENSE THAT IS PART OF ANY REPUBLICAN DISCUSSION...AND SO MUCH OF RELIGION INVOLVES HATING THOSE WHO ARE NOT "LIKE YOU"...
ADDITIONALLY REPUBLICANS SUPPORT WAR AND WEAPONS SPENDING...
WHAT IS CHRISTIAN ABOUT SUPPORTING OPTIONAL WARS...WHICH ARE SEEMINGLY ENDLESS AND UNWINNABLE...?
THE SO CALLED WHITE WORKING CLASS REPUBLICAN IS ON THIN ICE...INTELLECTUALLY AND ECONOMICALLY...
ONLY THEY DON'T KNOW IT...YET...
IT IS MUCH EASIER TO THINK THAT PROGRESSIVES AND LIBERALS ARE "JUST LAZY"...
YET EVERY TIME REPUBLICANS RUN GOVERNMENT IN WASHINGTON...BAD THINGS HAPPEN...
WHAT IS "RESPECTABLE" ABOUT MORE WAR AND WEAPONS....MORE OFF SHORING AND LOOTING... MORE HATE AND FEAR OF FELLOW AMERICANS...?
WHEN IS "RESPECTABLE" JUST ANOTHER WORD FOR "STUPID?"
