So, Thom Tillis is the Wrongpublican candidate for U.S. Senate in NC. He's funding his campaign with contributions from Sheldon Adelson (billionaire casino magnate who bankrolled Newt Gingrich's 2012 presidential bid largely on his own), Hushang Ansary (Iranian billionaire), John Allison (ex-CEO of BB&T), James Brothers (tobacco executive), Ron Cameron (poultry company executive who funds the Club for Growth and is linked with the Koch brothers), Edwin Clark (Executive Vice President at a national chain of gas stations), Joe Craft (coal executive), and Harlan Crow (investment company executive), and/or their families.
Billionaires, executives, and billionaire executives. Quite a coalition the Wrongpublicans have got supporting them.
With this in mind, why would anyone vote for Tillis and his equivalents in other states? The only reason these elites are supporting Tillis is because he'll make them even richer and more powerful. Why should the common pyyple ever vote for him, or any other Wrongpublican corporate pawn?
The Body Parts Meeting to Decide Which was Most Important
The brain said "I do all the thinking so I'm the most important and I should be in charge."
The eyes said "I see everything and let the rest of you know where we are, so I'm the most important and I should be in charge."
The hands said: "Without me we wouldn't be able to pick anything up or move anything. So I'm the most important and I should be in charge."
The stomach said: "I turn the food we eat into energy for the rest of you. Without me, we'd starve. So I'm the most important and I should be in charge."
The legs said: "Without me we wouldn't be able to move anywhere. I'm the most important and I should be in charge."
Then the rectum said: "I think I should be in charge."
All the rest of the parts said: YOU?!!
You don't do anything! You're not as important as we are, surely!
You can't be in charge!"
So the rectum stopped working...
After a few days, the legs were all wobbly,
the stomach was all queasy,
the hands were all shaky,
the eyes were all watery,
and the brain was all cloudy.
Moral of the Story: It only takes one asshole to shut down a job and an asshole is always in charge of everything.
The OTHER lesson to be learned is that for things to work well someone has to be concerned with ALL of the various parts and systems because they all are inter-related and if one fails they all could fail.
Your attitude is a departure from this more enlightened perspective.
