There is little evidence that
corporations that receive tax breaks will reinvest their newly gained money in
the American economy. Just as importantly, the plan to cut social programs will
not necessarily lead to people pulling themselves up by their boot straps and
earning a good living. Some people are mentally, psychologically or physically
incapable of earning a good living, some can and will work but are not inclined
to hustle; they, too, will not earn good money, but will encounter exploitation
instead.
That’s what I believe is fascist about the Republican game plan. It
expects everyone to be not only workaholics, but hustlers, gamblers, shysters,
and of course total conformists.
Everyone, I believe ,can work on some
level, but are they inclined to conform to Republican work standards and should
they serve an economy which is spiritually, intellectually, environmentally and
often physically destructive?
We have a government safety net not
just to protect people who are totally helpless, but also ordinary people, who
will be duped into working against their own interests and the interests of the
country or will fight against this trend and therefore pay a price
economically.
The Democrats must win this fight or
the country and world will be ruined.
