1. Our schools would get all the money they need

4. There are some things that should just NOT be connected to profit motives.
War is one of them. Prisons another.

But then, aren't there laws against war profiteering?

5. Health care is another
Yeah there are laws against it but these bozo's think they are above the laws long established, like the Magna Carta for instance.

Thank goodness for the Cosmic Parole Board for ultimate enforcement though.

Yikes.
