I think the recent mass-murders provides the most accurate measure of just how sick our society is today. Or maybe the rates of incarceration of non-violent offenders. But then I think of the fact that there is a fair chance Willard will "win" in November. And that tops all. Only in a seriously disturbed culture could a person like him even be considered for president.

The Romney economic "plan" is not merely unfair to a criminal extent: it is extremely violent. And his ilk should be incarcerated.
