Welcome to StephenGaskin.com.
This is actually the first personal website of my own that
I've put up. I've had other ones put up by Farm members
and by The Farm, but this is the first one of my very own.
If you come to this website,
you can look forward to opinions and arguments about all
the issues that are facing us right now.
I've been following politics
since 1939, and this is the worst government that I've ever
seen in the United States in my life, and the most thievish
and dishonest corporation culture that I've ever seen. And
so I felt that it's really necessary that I come out and
say some things about it, so this is where I'm going to
be talking about some of that stuff.
Glad to have you aboard.

The democrats think there's a class war. They think class war has taken away the benefits from the old people and taken away the educational opportunities for the youth and taken away the benefits for the veterans and taken away the benefits for the veterans' wives and that we live
in a time when the families of soldiers in combat are living on welfare.
And the republicans think class warfare is when the democrats mention any of that.

If a person in a murder trial could be shown to have as direct a link chain of command
to a killing as Rumsfeld has to Iraq, they could be tried, found guilty, and -- in some places --
put to the death penalty for their complicity.

What are we to say when a country that calls itself the only superpower
in the world changes hands in a coup d'état as it did in 2000 and nothing
is ever said and it gets swept under the rug by the next election?

The Doctrine of Corporate Personhood is in truth and technically an idolatry.

I don’t believe in capital punishment for humans, but I believe in it for corporations. The whole tort reform trip is to try to keep it so corporations cannot be sued out of business, and I thought a corporation that did bad stuff should be sued out of business. I thought the way capitalism works was, if you’re out in the jungle and a lion bites off your leg, then you’re a one-legged capitalist and that’s just the damn way it goes.
