Occupy Underground

it needs an external, guiding Moral Compass that is NOT Avarice. (FDR figured that out, and in so doing, saved the Wealth of his own class, even if the rest of his "class" were too dumb to see that at the time. )

The Christian Conservative block in this country think that that Moral Compass is the Bible, and the rest of us think it's the will of a Moral People, excercised by the Proxy Arm of the State, empowered to act, again, by Our Free Will. It's why they don't think that programs like the New Deal are even MORALLY acceptable, (as it seeks to remove even the need for INDIVIDUAL Morality) let alone Constitutionally legal. And for the record, when they say to me "thats EXACTLY correct", I ask them to explain to me why they favor outlawing Abortion, and thats usually when they get REALLY PISSED and walk away.

The GOP and thier idiots believe the immorality of Randian greed (and if you press them, they admit that's what it is) can be countered by many acts of individual morality. Liberals believe a SINGLE act (elected Empowerment of Government) of MASS Moral Conscience is better suited to the task.

It must suck for them that the Structure of our Government clearly lends itself to our way of thinking.
