Paul Krugman, as usual, is on point:
Attack of the Sadistic Zombies. Who are the Sadistic Zombies? The Republicans, and their dead-wrong, zombie ideas.
Can it possibly be true, that the Republicans are going to pass a budget that takes healthcare from the poor and gives tax breaks to the rich? Really?! In this age of stark income inequality? Yikes. Sadistic Zombies, no doubt. And the cruelty is the point.
Don't worry, read it and weep. Krugman has the facts, the charts and the truth on his side. Best lines of the piece are right here:
"But in that case, why the cruelty toward less-fortunate Americans? Well, as I see it the cruelty, as opposed to the dollars saved, is actually the point. Inflicting harm on the vulnerable isn’t something they do with regret, it’s something they do with a sense of satisfaction."
Governed by cruel, sadistic, zombies & bullies. Welcome to Terror-Dome USA.
