Greed Is Destroying America

  What a sad spectacle to watch, America dying of a self inflicted disease, of it's own making. The whole terrible scenario is like watching a man dying of lung cancer, asking his doctor for a cigarette. This fatal disease is of course rampant greed. It has spread through out the country. Look at any religion, business or even charity in this country and you will find examples of money corrupting them. Time magazine just exposed non profit hospital extreme over charging. Drug companies charge incredibly marked up prices and the hospitals turn around and even more obscenely mark up the same drug. Politicians allow the richest companies in the world , the oil and gas industry,a 10 billion dollar a year taxpayer subsidized  break. Lawmakers, who take an oath to protect Americans, instead suck on the teat of the gun lobby because of greed. Why do Republicans refuse to eliminate even one fat cat tax loophole? Greed pure and simple. Look how greedy hair sprayed preachers twist the teachings of Jesus to promote their own extravagant lifestyles. America is now on life support and on hospice care. The only thing left is the eulogy.
