We need a Tiberius Sempronius Gracchus...

[solinvictus]

History's repeating itself as America seems to mirror aspects of the Roman Empire. Tiberius Gracchus, a politician and soldier, noticed that during the Third Punic War, legionaries were losing their farmlands due to extended terms of service and were returning to Italy homeless paupers. Cut to Iraq, the same thing is happening with soldiers losing jobs and homes without the protection of bankruptcy. Gracchus initiated reforms and paid for it with his life. We need someone to emerge and do likewise in America. Bush has decided that America is for sale and the American people mean nothing.
