R the republicans trying to crash the economy on purpose?

15. They want to bring back the aristocracy

They're toadies for big money. They turn the middle class and lower class against themselves with these "moral" wedge issues so that we can't unite in our best, self-preserving interests. Meanwhile, they let the rich keep more and more of their wealth, let corporations get more and more powerful... Big Money wants to own everything. That's their version of Manifest Destiny. They want to own every natural resource, they want to monopolize every aspect of culture and manufacturing, they want everyone working for them at slave wages. Because, you know, power. There's no other point in amassing so much money, more money than they could ever spend. It's just a score card to them, and it equates to power. They want to be the ones that save us from ourselves (i.e., our representative democracy), and they want us to owe them. Maybe they'll be benevolent once they've won, but I doubt it.
