May I bring up the concept and introduce the words "neo-slavery"....
we're in for a new era of broad spectrum, colored skin slavery in this country and outside this country.

Who will be the slaves - every person who right wing supporters target as weak, dangerous, non-submissive, immoral, etc.

Outside this country?
Do not forget that just a few months ago - Bush implied/suggested that Africans would make a good world police force.

Who else?

Seniors who are way too dependent on that damned social security so something has to be done to kill ss off along with as many of them as possible through unaffordable prescriptions combined with corporations who must make money off of the ever collected money.

Middle east man - the target du jour - because they are all prime suspects and potential terrorists.

Women who will get an abortion and their doctors - burned at the stake, even if raped.

All gays, especially those who wish to marry.

Kids who volunteer (or not) for service believing that they ARE NOT doing it for corporations.

Occupation losers - those people who cannot find a job and got a bachelors, masters or doctorates who are advised to go back to community college to learn a new trade.

Middle class tax generators - the only people who bring in significant dollars needed to plan and fund wars, killing, takeovers, secret agreements.

I used to say the right wing needed silent, agreeable, sub-missive, prejudiced citizens - I now call us neo-slaves.

All those homeless women with their children or those who don't see their kids and spend an ungodly amount of money on public transportation and day care.

And any day now - they are going to stop allowing people without insurance to get emergency care.

The slaves will be all those not making it through racial, sexual, and moral hate and the perceived dependents on THEIR system.

Centuries ago, we were serfs. Two centuries ago swiped Africans we're classic slaves.
