The right wing, all Republicans and some Republicans in the House posing as Democrats are waging an all out war against public education, public heath-care, immigration, and of course equal rights for gay people.
If you go to the spokespeople for the RI Right Wing at Anchor Rising, you can see that the fight against education and social services for middle and lower class RIslanders is in full swing.
They do note that one of the 13 lonely Republicans in the house has quit the Republican Party, Representative Richard Singleton (R - Cumberland) who will for now be an independent. Unfortunately the pundits at Anchor Rising fail to make the obvious connection that RI Republicans are out of touch with the people of RI AND that could be the reason they can't elect anyone and the reason even those Republicans elected are jumping ship.
RIslanders WANT a state-supplied health care system, they want a state-supplied education system, they want all those services that are their right to expect from their governments, EVEN IF IT MEANS higher taxes. Who minds paying taxes if the profit is taken out of those services all RI citizens need? No one once every one is able to understand and oppose the coporate and business propaganda that accompanies any effort to make our lives easier would oppose paying unconscionable profits to Insurance companies that cover nothing.....
Having not to worry about paying for education, health-care, all of life's basic services will be an enormous boost to our citizens. Let's do it and do it NOW: state-supplied health care and state supplied education at all levels for all citizens.
Ask yourself: What kind of man or group wants to make a profit off another's health problems? Then deny them the care you promised.
What kind of system or man wants to make a profit out of lending money to others who want to go on to college?
Not very good people in either case.
