Some things, they just don't make sense

According to the majority of Americans who voted in November (If I'm supposed to believe that democracy works...), it's better for less than 1 percent of them to have 3 percent less taxes to pay on their hundreds of millions, but it's not right for teachers to negotiate for higher wages on top of their less-than-$50,000.

In fact, if teachers get to negotiate, surely, our economy will crumble...and yet, allowing a millions of dollars to come into the national treasury would be a wrongful infringement on the select-few's rights.

For one, that's not democracy. There are a lot more teachers than multi-millionaires in this country.

Further, Democracy, as the ruling party would proclaim, means letting the majority do what they want because they're the majority.

But what if the majority is wrong?

I don't know how to say they weren't, last November.

Capitalism and Democracy don't even jive with each other when it comes to worker's rights...Labor is the majority.

I could rail, and will continue to later, hard against the masochistic tendencies of the electorate, but what's the use?

The Kingdom of God is the only perfect society, and Jesus wouldn't have come if you could simply regulate its rule into existence. It's just so painful, that so man fellow-participants, or, should-be-participants in God's Kingdom align themselves with political policies that crush the equality and welfare of the disenfranchised.  Greed and stepping over and on top of the less powerful are the name of the game in our "free-market democracy." If Jesus was for that, we're reading different Bibles.
