Or what can I do for anyone, for humanity, for polar bears? the problem with letting profit alone run the show is that it breeds sociopathy. Looking at history as a developmental process, like "Evolution" or cosmology the connection should be blatant. E Plurbus Unum. We extend and protect our own liberty in extending it and protecting it for one another. There is no other way.

We've gone a long way off track. Consider that even Republicans were prepared to convict Nixon and the press was instrumental in bringing him down.

Republicans of today, aren't " those" Republicans of the Nixon era; who would often be amenable, to reach across the aisle to their Democrat counterparts, to find common ground to agree upon. It would appear, the IQ levels & common sense has dipped considerably since then in many elected legislators; in particular the Republican party. What does that suggest about the intelligence & common sense of those who elected them today? And of the older republican legislators who dipped out early; there obviously was a recognition of a new "breed" of elected republican legislators (self labeled maga officials in particular) that made them not wish to deal with the madness.
