74 - Year-End Review Of Some Right-Wing Gifts To America In 2006: Poverty / Class Warfare / War Profiteering / Mining Deaths / Cancer / Lung Disease
This last podcast of the year will be a review of some of the worst things the right-wing did in 2006 as covered by Blast The Right.
Here's how I put together my list.
You know I often say that right-wing policies inevitably cause increased human misery, suffering, pain and death. I don’t think I've every explained exactly what the components of that phrase mean to me.
Misery and suffering I associate with the increased poverty and general economic deprivation produced by right-wing economic measures.
Pain and death refers to the actual physical pain and dying that is caused both by poverty, and more directly, by right-wing policies that lead to war, and that fail to protect against environmental hazards and fatal diseases.
Now, it's hard to quantify evil, saying one type of right-wing-caused increase in human misery, suffering, pain and death is worse that another type of right-wing-caused increase in human misery, suffering, pain and death.
Obviously in terms of sheer magnitude, Bush's continuing slaughterhouse in Iraq would be number one.
Since on this podcast I like to give you a perspective not found on the mainstream media, I've limited my Worst of 2006 List to items that were terribly underreported, if reported at all, in the mass media.
I've selected three in each category of damage. First we'll do the misery and suffering, economic deprivation category. Then we'll go on to the physical pain and death examples of the right-wing in action.
When you're at family gatherings and other festive occasions during this holiday season and right-wing blather rears its ugly head, this week's podcast will give you a smorgasbord to choose from to throw back at the right-winger who's spouting the right's usual nonsense.
