If you didn’t know the subject was Texas, you’d think the headlines about what’s going on there were about some poor emerging nation with little money & no infrastructure.

TX is NEITHER!

What’s happening there should embarrass us ALL as Americans.

The GOP mentality in TX is
really not all that different than the mentality of corrupt tin-pot dictators in poor countries who provide less than the bare minimum to the people & use government to enrich themselves.

In TX, they call it «privatizing» & «deregulation.»

But it’s really just bog-standard
grifting & corruption.

For years now, the GOP has hated the idea of services to the public, which is why they’ve spent decades attacking the USPS, public schools & many other services.

The only «public services» they actually like are police departments & prisons.

They
already found a way to «privatize» the latter.

How long before they do the same to the former? Private police departments would be a nightmare!

There are two defining characteristics of the current GOP: GREED & CALLOUSNESS.

Look to any decision made by them in the
last decade and you will find heap-loads of one or the other, and quite often, BOTH.

They use FEAR mongering and HATE (of minorities) to convince those harmed by their greed & callousness, to continue empowering them & facilitating their corruption.

And why not?🤷🏽‍♀️

It works.
