One Petty Ewe Lamb
“There were ii men inwards ane city: the ane rich, too the other poor….. “
(II Samuel 12:1-12)
Thus begins the even out of King David’s penalization for robbing a elementary homo of his life too of his ane dear wife. I receive got had the incredible fortune of beingness taught the Bible inwards the City of David, in all probability a rock throw away from where he perpetrated a sin that haunts his people to this really day. I was taught the Bible non as a divine text, but as a political, historical too philosophical manuscript written yesteryear ancient sages, too David’s even out was non well-nigh the perils of philandering. It was well-nigh the disastrous results of social injustice. The even out is non a Socialist manifesto. The Bible inwards its entirety accepts the fact that in that place are rich men too pathetic men too David was non admonished for non redistributing his riches as alongside the poor. The trouble of decency is crossed when the rich too powerful wantonly arrive at upwardly one's take away heed to convey away the pathetic man’s “one trivial ewe lamb”, non to love too cherish as the pathetic homo too his identify unit of measurement did, but to carelessly slaughter too serve at around casual meal. The predicted futurity for such rich men too for their people is that “the sword shall never depart from thy house”. Of course, this is only a story, but over the thousands of years since Nathan the Prophet delivered his indictment, many nations too bully kingdoms came to sense gruesome violence too ultimately collapsed due to excesses of the rich too powerful, too careless disregard for basic social justice.
Today, America is taking the offset stride towards joining the pantheon of vicious nations doomed yesteryear history to crash too burn. The Grand Old Party of Abraham Lincoln, who went to state of war with itself to rectify social injustice, is quest the American people to elect the Romney/Ryan twain to the highest offices inwards the land, based on their solemn hope to hunt downwards all remaining trivial ewe lambs of the pathetic too serve them upwardly butchered too dressed as an afternoon snack for the rich men they represent, because the solely agency for pathetic people to live too avert the wrath of the rich is to brand the sacrifices necessary for feeding the rich men’s insatiable appetite for tender shish-kebab.
I am non an economist or a financial practiced of whatsoever sort, too I receive got no appreciation for the fine differences betwixt long term too brusque term working capital missive of the alphabet gains, or the multitude of tangled damage used to obscure intended too unintended realities from mutual folks who receive got non experienced whatsoever type of gains inwards one-half a century. I am perfectly willing to convey the obvious fact that the U.S. of A. of America is spending to a greater extent than than it’s making too that nosotros must brand to a greater extent than too that, at to the lowest degree temporarily, nosotros must tighten our collective belts. The Romney/Ryan notion of financial responsibleness is placing the rich folks, each with his ain private belt, at the soft take in of the beltless masses of pathetic people, all surrounded yesteryear ane national belt, which is to live tightened at the same fourth dimension as the epicenter of wealthy individuals loosen their belts yesteryear a few notches. The incredibly good calculated persuasion is that the circumference of all of us tin live reduced piece the wealthy take in is genuinely increasing its girth. Millions of faceless too nameless pathetic people volition of course of report suffocate to locomote yesteryear away during this geometric wizardry if allowed to proceed, but the captains too titans inwards our midst volition thrive, too hope to eventually portion a chip of their goodness fortunes with the surviving cannon forage inwards their immediate vicinity.
If you lot are ane of the fewer too fewer citizens who are non poor, too if you lot think that when the Great Republican belt tightening exercise commences, you lot could wrestle yourself a cozy identify unopen plenty to the take in to allow you lot to hold your belt where it is today, or if you’re lucky perhaps fifty-fifty relax it a notch or two, piece shielding your eyes too ears from your neighbors getting crushed at the periphery, holler upwardly that this bully acre was created as “one acre nether God, indivisible, with freedom too judge for all”, too God has spoken on this thing over 5 G years ago, too regardless of your beliefs, history is didactics us that cipher that was built on social injustice too “that which is evil” tin stand upwardly for really long, too no thing how many fortunes were bestowed on a homo or a acre inwards the past, in ane lawsuit “the pathetic man’s lamb” is non rubber from the selfish greed of the rich too powerful, sooner or after calamity ever follows.
The 2012 Presidential election is non well-nigh dissimilar financial approaches to the national deficit. It’s non well-nigh efficiency of private markets as opposed to incompetence of populace solutions. It’s non well-nigh wellness attention or Obamacare. It’s non fifty-fifty well-nigh gay spousal human relationship or abortions. This upcoming election is unfortunately well-nigh politics as green versus sheer evil. And it is your determination to brand on Nov 6th. Please vote.
