“No one can serve two masters, for he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one, and be neglectful of the other; and so you cannot serve both God and Mammon.”
Matt 6:24
“What is good? All that heightens the feeling of power in a man, the will to power, power itself. What is bad? All that is born of weakness. What is happiness? The feeling that power is growing, and that resistance is overcome.”
Friedrich Nietzsche, The Antichrist
It’s time for a new New Deal.
But it is not going to happen. The corporate Democrats won’t back it, or even mention it. And the Republicans are busy rolling every shred of the old New Deal back, from sound financial regulation to basic safety nets for the weak, the sick, the unfortunate, and the old.
Why?
Because their Big Money master, Mammon, would not be pleased.
News flash.
Not everyone who suffers misfortune does so because they are lazy and purposely made bad choices.
Not everyone who is working a full time job or several part time jobs is in good financial shape, because too many jobs are paying poverty wages with inadequate benefits.
