· Instituting an all out effort to stop global warming is a true moral value
· The rebuilding of America’s industrial base and it’s vital infrastructure is an urgent national security priority and another true moral value
· Providing all our citizens with Universal Single Payer Healthcare , including the 10 million children that are now uninsured, is a right and a moral value
· Eliminating the dramatically increased “gap” in income between the rich few in this country and the rest of our citizens and restoring the middle class is a moral value
· Eliminating the Bush tax cuts for the rich and super rich (“Bush’s Base” as he calls them) is a moral value
· Providing, as a right, a “free” education from pre-school all the way through trade school or college to all our citizens (including free childcare) is a moral value and a national security imperative
By striving to live up to these moral values the United States will again become the beacon of freedom and economic opportunity that it once was. You may well ask “how are we going to pay for all this morality?” To answer that I’ll quote Franklin D. Roosevelt whose New Deal along with a strong union movement built this country into the richest and strongest nation in the world.
The Quote: “Here is my principle: Taxes shall be levied according to ability to pay. That is the only American principle.”
Now I want my Republican friends to know that if you pray every day, go to church every Sunday and have a well respected and pious wife who defends you at every turn, that does not mean that you have moral values. You will be judged by God by your deeds, your lies and what you have left undone.
"People are poor because they are lazy." ~George W. Bush, while attending Harvard Law School
