10 Woe to those who make unjust laws,
to those who issue oppressive decrees,
2 to deprive the poor of their rights
and withhold justice from the oppressed of my people,
making widows their prey
and robbing the fatherless.
3 What will you do on the day of reckoning,
when disaster comes from afar?
To whom will you run for help?
Where will you leave your riches?
4 Nothing will remain but to cringe among the captives
or fall among the slain.
Yet for all this, his anger is not turned away,
his hand is still upraised.

(5,106 posts)The most sacred advantages of our "Democratic" system are Socialist in nature. "Keep your hands off our Social Security" was one of the more perfect examples of Tea Party ignorance. Our government has long been partly (the better parts) Socialist in nature. Communism, badly handled by some brutal despots, seems to blend with Socialism in badly informed minds. No political system is perfect. The U.S. system was working best post WWII until about 1980. The amiable puppet Republicans made St. Ronald Reagan has to be the the greatest political con job in political history. Does it show that I'm of partly Scandinavian heritage ?

(17,301 posts)"Starve the hungry, feed only the rich and fat." Oh wait, that's NOT in the bible. It's a RepubliCON and Ayan Rand motto but definitely NOT something Jesus ever said.
