"We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools."

"We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools."
- Martin Luther King, Jr.

I feel like we're living in a whirlwind of fools in Wash DC as they carry out their orders as they have been paid by Corporations to do. How can we live in what was considered the greatest country on earth, and allow people to perish due to the inability to pay for health care? How great can we be, when folks face bankruptcy or homelessness if they get sick and need help?

With this mentality... how did anyone decide that Dr. Jack Kevorkian should go to jail? It's wrong for folks to personally decide they have no more fight left and tired of suffering, but insurance companies can tell folks that you can't afford help, so die. Wow!

And now we have our controlled media, so quiet about the fact that GOP/Teabags got what they wanted. Deficit be damned!!! We can all see the fraud in all that protesting up to November. Seems that as Dick Cheyney said... 'deficits don't matter'... as long as it's benefiting the wealthy.

I saw the quote by MLK this morning in an email I received from BLACKNJ and these things popped into my mind. I will continue to pray for increased wisdom and learning so that we can live civilly together... and not perish as fools!
