And the Rich Get Richer

On the day the new Congress convened this year, Sen. Dianne Feinstein introduced legislation to route $25 billion in taxpayer money to a government agency that had just awarded her husband's real estate firm a lucrative contract to sell foreclosed properties at compensation rates higher than the industry norms.

I can understand why she's all for citizen disarmament.

I can see someone who had his life ruined by fascists tampering with the economy finding out the family home he put his life into that was foreclosed from under him is just another chip in the portfolio of swines whose manipulations created the mess...and then realize he and millions like him have been swindled pawns, and the odds of ever getting justice are...

But hey--Barack is going to give him $400...

And anybody who isn't grateful is just a filthy ol' teabagger...

Another classic example of why this country is going down the shitter.
When I look at folks in the mall or traffic. I know that most of them have zero clue what is going on around them. And because of that and not too far off they will become prey and maybe even food.
Of course this is criminal conduct by criminals who know they can get away with it. The evil of these people never seems to find a level that it stops at.

The pieces of the big puzzle are being found, and again and again we see it proven that how they feel about trusting the People with guns is how they feel about fairness and justice in general.
Just about everyone has a house or apartment. You can only f--- ALL of the people SOME of the time. They forget.

No, wait, David! The solution is to take money away from the corrupt rich and and give it to the government. You know, because people with personality defects never work in government. Government people are totally different. They're....like....genetically engineered for public service or something.

And if we're not sure, we can always give them a test of fitness, because we know how well those keep out the undesirables. I know what you're thinking, but the tests are designed and administered only by perfect public servants. They're perfect because they are employed by the State, right?

I mean, otherwise we'd have to admit that the State is neither perfect, nor the source of our rights--or a source of morals, for that matter--and arguing which style of governance is best is like arguing which side of the sledgehammer is better for pounding a post that's already in the ground.
