8. Alas, the reality Nocera describes just descends
into the vomitous, greed-driven pit of horror that is the degenerate consequence of so-called 'Republicon Family Values.'

6. Much needed illustration of the sickness of that culture.
These people need a serious lesson in empathy.

18. It's coming.
Their reign is almost over.

I had a dream/vision about that over a year ago. Every part of it has so far come true.

The light is coming. On all levels. Seriously. No eye will stay dry.

7. Assholes.
How can anyone stand to be around people like this? Are all their friends just more assholes?

15. K&R
The revolution is not going
to happen tomorrow --
it's never going to happen.
It's taking place right now.
It is an alternate universe
that runs parallel to this one,
waiting for you to switch sides.

17. They aren't really the 1%.
These people are at best the middle class. I guess to take a job foreclosing on people who are down on their luck, you would have to be lacking in empathy.

The 1% can always find somebody to do their dirty work.

19. Study finds the rich lack empathy
Taxation is a means to force empathy on the rich. The more miserable a rich person can be made the better off our society will be.
