History: A great teacher... unless you ignore it.

The French Revolution, The American Revolution, The Russian Revolution, only three examples...

And yet every single one of them had a few things in common for all that they were different countries and different times. Every single one of them were caused by lack of freedom of religion, high taxes on the poor, capitulation to the rich and privileged, the poor being subjugated by the rich who believed they were entitled to rule by blood, lack of proper health care, the spread of illness, and desire for freedom from the privileged class.

All of these things we are seeing currently in the United States. And yet Republicans still believe that these kinds of things are good. For no reason that I can see, they disguise it as so-called "freedom" when what they really want is anarchy or fascism (that's where Bush was headed after all).

It hasn't worked in the past, it won't work in the future, so why continue to promote it?

That's not to say that Communism is the answer either, especially since its usually accompanied by a dictatorship. But a nice middle ground would benefit all.

I think its time to stop working against your own best interest. Its time to stop promoting the Republican party that has been taken over by the far right religious extremists who are only interested in their own profit.

Republicans obviously prefer to ignore the lessons of the past, the better to exploit you with, my dear.
