Attention all workers
Rand Paul believes
in the dignity and value of work.
Is this guy
some kind of socialist?
He certainly doesn't think
any oppressive government regulations
should be put in place
that might hinder your ability
to enjoy your dignity.
So nope
not a socialist.
However even with
his more-libertarian positions watered down
to match those of
the elite GOP base
if he's still at all serious
about reducing mass incarceration
and fulfilling his dream
of a world
where "any law that disproportionately incarcerates
people of color
is repealed"
for them
that might be
a crisis of conscience.
