Coronation of the Looters

What this election has truly accomplished is to draw sharp lines between the four factions currently existing in America. For years we have been tricked into thinking the Republicans and Democrats are on opposite ends of a tug-of-war rope, pulling against each other, when actually they are holding hands and skipping heartily together toward collectivism, socialism, and The State As Savior. All the arguments of Conservative versus Liberal, Democrat versus Republican, and Right versus Left are smoke and mirrors to distract us from the eternal truth that the only struggle is between government control and individual liberty...

So what are these four factions? They can be described as the Looters, the Parasites, the Productive Class, and the Super-Rich.

"Spartacus" assesses the state of a union that embraces the state as its savior.

Gee, it's so hard to tell the difference between those classes. Sometimes it is simply a question of perspective.

I think there are two divisions: those who are wearing the boot, and those who are under it.

There are only two sides to this issue: Authoritarians (those who think it is OK to control others' private lives even if they are harming no one else) and libertarians (those who don't think it's OK even if you have a badge).

The distinction becomes more clear with each passing day.

You can lump the Union thugs into the "looters" category. They do nothing buy live off the wages of the productive class.
