Mind Boggling

Seems impossible, but Robert Reich a reliable person wrote today that if the billionaire gave every person in the United States $3,000 they would still have more than they had at the start of the pandemic. Poverty by choice should be the American motto.  The income inequality is insane.  The planet is melting, the rich have robbed everyone blind, and who cares?  We are warm, not hungry, and the sun just came up, so who cares.  Disaster creeps up on us and we just don't notice. Here we sit in the desert which once had some of the cleanest air on Earth.  Looking toward Phoenix you can see the pollution.  Who cares is just happened a little at a time.  The Republicans have successfully made sharing a sin.  Sharing is a communist plot.  Sharing ruins people and makes them lazy.  It is totally insane to live in a world with plenty of resources and have people homeless and hungry, but that is what is best the trickledown Republicans tell us.  Slave owners lied to and terrorized the slaves.  Republicans are on exactly the same page.  There was enough food on the plantation for everyone to eat well, but the master ate well and the slaves starved while the master sold the excess to buy a new horse and more slaves.  Are we really that stupid that we cannot see Walmart is just a modern plantation?
