….Call Me A Socialist…

….If you want to, BUT…

I believe that everyone is entitled to good, affordable healthcare. I have a hard time believing that people actually buy the mantra that it will raise taxes. It might—they might pay $10.00 a month more in taxes, but those same people afraid of that are paying $30.00 or more per week for some half-assed insurance their employers provide if they provide any at all.

….Call me a bleeding heart liberal if you want…

I am pro-life. My pro-life has nothing to do with abortion. I believe that once a baby is born it is our responsibility to see that they are kept safe and fed and have good health insurance and a good education. I am also pro-choice.

I believe that all people are created equal, no matter their skin color, ethnicity, sex, or sexual orientation. a mantra that this country was founded on and has yet to achieve.

I do not believe that assault weapons belong in the hands of ordinary citizens. If they want their guns they should go through training and become a real, well-regulated militia, just like the constitution says.

I do not force my atheism on the religious and they shouldn’t try to force their religion on me. The constitution guarantees freedom of religion and that should include freedom from religion.

….Call me WOKE if you want…

That just means that I am enlightened, that I understand, and that I am not stupid enough to fall for Republican propaganda.

Worked as a conductor on the Railroad until 1988, worked as a machinist until 2007 and then retired. Earned a creative writing certificate from Rio Salado Community College in 2014. Became concerned when GW Bush was elected, even more, concerned when Republicans began trying to block everything Obama tried to do and now totally p**sed off at what trump and the Republicans are trying to do to our country. I started my own blog in 2009 and now write for The Blue Route.
