The op is engaged in some pretty broad and flawed generalizations but let's examine what logic looks like without empathy.
Let's say you have a population of hungry children, without empathy it is quite logical to kill half of them and feed them to the other half until there are no more hungry children, problem solved.
Yeah...that scenario reminded me of a question during the debates for all of the Republican presidential candidates about someone showing up at the emergency room with no health insurance...."Let 'Em Die" was the consensus...at least that's what Ron Paul said and best as I remember none of them disagreed and the crowd applauded.
That's the kind of bullshit which cost the Republicans the election......and will cost them more if they don't recognize the problem and do something about it.
Republican politics is really about fear, their fringe is ruled by fear and the rest fear angering them, I do not see logic as much as a devotion to truisms, things that sound like common sense to them but have little basis in reality, their treatment of the national economy like a household budget scaled up is a good example.
Yeah....like them believing anyone who earns less than $40,000 a month is middle class. Here in Tennessee the median family income is $52,000 a year
