There are so many examples of “taking the sides of the weak against the strong” in today’s world it’s hard to count them all. And, as 19th Century abolitionist Harriet Beecher Stowe put it, “the best people” have always been heavily involved in ensuring things like:
• Undocumented workers are treated fairly and humanely,
• Americans continue to enjoy the freedoms under the democracy that was promised to them in the Constitution,
• Minorities in terms race, religion, and sexual orientation have equal footing with straight white males,
• All children have access to quality education, and
• Workers have the right to organize.
Standing up for the common person is something that has meant something to people of decency since the dawn of humankind. Perhaps it’s worth preserving in these difficult times.
Obviously, James Carville has been wrong before, but it appears that he’s onto something here.
An ever-increasing number of Americans are realizing that Trump is criminally insane, and is leading this nation to destruction.
It’s a pleasure to see that Dr. Brian Cox has people so popular, having joined the ranks for Neil DeGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye, and a few others. This phenomenon of celebrity physicists if one of very few bright spots in our modern world.
I would qualify what he says at left as follows: the only people who hate the economics here are those invested in fossil fuels. Clean energy and transportation are already huge industries, and they’re growing at an amazing pace–even in the face of heavy suppression by Big Oil and Donald Trump.
Are you saying that Trump is defying the law, as if this is news?
It happens almost every day.
