That these wealthiest , that occupy 1% of our population , who have benefitted most from the American Dream , are comfortable enhancing their dreams at the expense of the other 90%of population . GOP has embraced this vision and added additional support and benefits by allowing , encouraging and legislating against the poor and middle classes, minorities, and women . And they are taking it upon them selves to persecute people that don’t join in their corruption. LGBTQ population faces the

wrath and anger and false accusations by the GOP

To marginalize these minorities and in some cases try to exterminate them .

Leaving wealthy white old christian men making every decision based on retention of their paranoid powers and their stolen wealth from 90+% of Americans .

Thats who we want in power ?

Do not be naive the GOP will pretend they’ve had an awakening to needs of the poor and the middle class. They are lying , and as we know they are good at lying.

More good points. Ms. Lane. I also feel that there is in the uber-rich an inability to recognize the series of critical events that were pure chance. Like picking the right parents for starters.

Most people will honestly state that they work hard and most of the people who “make it.” attribute meritocracy as a major factor. They don’t like attribute their success to God having favored them, because it means that God doesn’t care about you or me as much. It is this blessed by God nonsense that provides the guilt free consciousness that justifies any taking advantage of others, because we all know that God does not enable bad people to prevail.
