The Conservative Plot Against Americans

I have a theory. It seems pretty obvious when you look at it. I could just be thinking the worst of them, but take a look at my theory and then tell me that it doesn't start some clicking in your own clockworks.

Look at what they're doing so far: Virtually destroying health care; keeping the oil companies rich while prices rise for us and the cost of food goes up, thereby causing those of us that don't make a lot of money to forgo healthier choices. Can't stay healthy if you can't eat right. Destroying our public education; taking away pertinent health care for women-because sometimes abortions are performed; taking away our EPA protections on manufacturers; destroying unions, thereby taking away collective bargaining for decent working conditions and equal pay. It all started long ago when these ridiculous tax breaks were given to manufacturers that increased their bottom line if they moved out of the country. The economy is in trouble and Americans are not being asked to sacrifice anything, like they did during World War II. God knows, they'd never let anyone that can afford to make a few sacrifices make any. Meanwhile, the middle class families and lower are making every sacrifice they possibly can in order to keep their families afloat.

I've given up cable. That's one small thing I've done for myself. Meanwhile, if you're in prison for anything you get free cable, free gym membership, and access to a free education if you're really good. Can't walk out the doors for anything though, but REALLY? Do we need to be paying their cable bill? (This really has nothing to do with my theory, but it is something that irks me.)

So, my theory: The conservatives want to dumb us down. Make people that make poor choices have children and be lousy parents, take away decent education from people that can't afford to get a private one, and keep us sick, desperate, and hungry. We'll get to a point where we'll take any job. Which is when they'll swoop in as the heroes and bring manufacturing back to US - after they've made sure they have no EPA rules to follow and no unions to kowtow to. So we'll have terrible working conditions, cancer from the water we're drinking from all the runoff going into our watersheds, asthma and COPD from the pollution being spewed into the air and the rich will sit in their ivory towers away from us getting richer while we keep producing their affordable workforce. It's pretty bleak.

Anyway, that's what I see coming. I don't know...maybe I'm paranoid, but just take a good look at the things they are doing and the things that they want to do. I think a little paranoia is called for.
