Saw Hoyer on C-Span saying Buffett says we've got to do debt,
'we all, at WH,' agreed, good speech, then his 'friend' from VA, Cantor, gets up and says, believe this? 'Its all about jobs!' Turned it off then, didn't wait to hear whether Hoyer came back w 'Where are your jobs bills?' Prolly no opportunity for him to do that, but CAN YOU BELIEVE IT???

1. Hoyer must
get rid of debt to further enrich people putting humanity in a lockbox. Our task is just as simple if, unattainable. Replace Hoyer with a human being.

Failing that, I hope he has has a castle somewhere he thinks is safe. The people have enough of their own innocent blood forced on their hands without dishonoring themselves by thinking such people are worth a belated vengeance.

2. Absolute principle
if you are asking people to surrender everything then the rich, who have already enjoyed years of unused excess should give everything they personally own to the poor and go on a modest public pension(they are not Christians after all, the people are forced to be that!).

Charity is not enough. Raping the planet is not enough. The logical absolute would be for the highest true believers in capitalism to divest downward absolutely. The natural reason is we are entering a worldwide crisis for survival. Hell, they might even save capitalism itself for a while longer, with uncustomary dignity.
