24. Only So Much Time

The right-wing/military/corporate/industrial/media complex comes at us with so many issues that it's hard to focus. I think it's criminal what Monsanto and their paid lackeys are doing. I also think it's criminal what the Keystone Pipeline represents. It's criminal that they want to deny people affordable health-care under the guise of religiosity when it's a matter that big medicine/pharma oppose it. It's criminal that our politicians want to spend more time in our bedrooms rather than corporate boardrooms. (Unless it's to get their bribes) The republicans are just basically criminal. I care about a lot of issues, but don't have energy for all of them. I think that there are many liberals out there to fight the good fight against these jerks. I personally am working to get progressives elected to move the republicans out. I applaud your post. It IS a serious issue.
