They swore they wouldn’t touch Medicare, or Medicaid for that matter.

I grew up believing that we had learned the lessons of the German poem and Martin Luther King Jr's speeches. We would all speak out if we saw democracy threatened and the rule of law under attack.
I will always speak out against wrong. I will always stand up for democracy. I will not back down.

Ok. Srsly. Why aren’t we taxing Religious groups? They are a business. Reality. If you tax them, then those oligarchs & a lot of really rich Far Right people are going to lose a lot of their money. Then we’ll see how generous & spiritual they are. Hello? Congress? Congress? Anyone?
