Religious derps messing everything up, now its Plutocrats . It sounds almost as bad as the Alex Jones ass holes.
Oh, no, it was always the plutocrats... the Religious Derpa-derps are just the ones going along with.
"Man, I'm really mad about abortion. And Gay marriages! Hey, why is my job being shipped to China!"
They never make the connection.
I can't either. Is abortion causing jobs to be shipped to China?
When did this start?
I rest my case. Okay, here, let's try this again.
Goldwater ran on "Plutocracy forever" straight up. You peasents were going to work for the rich without the government helping you and you'd better learn to like it!
He lost 44 states, and the only states he won were mad at LBJ because he signed the Civil Rights act.
Republicans after that had the good sense to go back to siding with working people over the rich. Nixon started OSHA and EPA and looked out for and cultivated the working man's vote.
Well, along came Reagan, and he figured, he was going to try to sell Plutocracy again. But he was going to wrap the bitter pill in a nice religious bacon strip to get you Derpa-Derps to swallow it.
Man, he hated abortion. And he hated gays. (except his gay buddies in Hollywood who all started dropping off from AIDS, which he wouldn't talk about.) And he hated that immorallity and the ACLU saying church and state should be separate.
And you Derpa-Derps all voted for him. And Bush. And Bush's retarded son. (And I did, too, but now I know better.)
But guess what. Abortion is still legal. Gay marriage is going to be legal really soon. Prayer in School is still illegal and they ain't teaching about talking snakes in the schools.
But you know what you did get?
You got free trade treaties that made it easier for big corporations to move your job to China.
You got "right to work" laws that made it easier for employers to revoke the wages unions fought for.
You got "at will employment", that made it easier for employers to fire you and hire some hungry waif who'd work for less.
A hungry waif who will probably go out and have an abortion because he can't afford a kid.
