Congressional Candidate: Entitlements Are Like Slave Owners That Took Pretty Good Care Of Their Slaves
BY REBECCA LEBER ON MARCH 13, 2014 AT 2:33 PM
Arizona congressional candidate Jim Brown (R) compared entitlements to slavery in a Facebook post Wednesday, explaining that entitlements give politicians power over the people allowing them to control us much like slave owners that took pretty good care of their slaves and livestock.
Brown urged people to vote so lawmakers start to focus on jobs, education, and opportunity not slavery:

"I'm pretty much convinced that GOPers and run of the mill Winger Cons are running this internal contest within themselves to say the most reprehensible thing in public possible. And were I to gather what the grand prize would be, I'd say that it would be the right of the winner to keep a small Black child in their basement as a sex slave.
So, if perhaps we discovered that one of them had, in fact, kept a small Black child in their basement as a sex slave, then we can assume that I'm on to something here."
