I was reading another on-line forum, and an ignorant asshole redneck bible-thumping birther teabagger was arguing that Obama is one of the worst American President of all-time. Naturally, badly losing the argument when confronted with rational arguments, the "Hitler" argument was pulled.
"Hitler? You're comparing Obama to Hitler? That is asinine. Hitler killed millions of people."
So that planted a seed of thought into my brain. I got to wondering ... how many millions of (his own!) people would Mitt Romney kill if elected President?
We already know the R-money platform. The part that doesn't seem to change from week to week include:
- Uninsuring approximately 30,000,000 Americans (yes, that's 30 MILLION with a capital M) through the repeal of the Affordable Care Act. That is 30,000,000 people unable to get health care now, with one injury or sickness threatening their existence. How many of those people desperately need this insurance, which they now have thanks to Obama? How many people will literally die in the streets from a lack of health care?
- Deregulating the people and companies who rape and destroy our environment. How many people will get cancer from the toxins these companies are unleashing into the air, land, and water? How many people will have aggravated asthma that will eventually kill them from pollution? How many people will be killed just so companies can operate a little cheaper to earn another $0.01 in net margin on their cheap and shoddy products?
- There are 160,000,000 women in the country now. Without access to life-saving abortions and contraceptives, these women are at risk. How many women will be killed because they don't have access to abortion thanks to the anti-choice crowd's intrusion on the female body? All it takes is a pregnancy to put the life of the mother at risk. The R-money / Ryan plan is to let these women die.
I think when tallied up, Mittens "Romnesia" R-money will easily kill well over 1,000,000 American citizens, and that's a fairly "conservative" guess (ha!). It you have any inkling to support R-money's dangerous policies, think about the massive damage he will inflict upon the American society.
