The movie that is. Was watching it last night. Though it has been 24 years, the movie seems to presage this week's headlines of a Republican governor (Wisconsin) attempting to kill unions, and companies (Nokia this week and Yahoo two weeks ago) growing profits by cutting workers.
Somehow, for some reason, Americans have bought into greed as the ultimate virtue, and that cutting workers is a virtuous, if not moral obligation of corporations and governments. God's people have turned on God, and compassion is the new vice in America.
"Then they crucified him and divided his garments by casting lots for them to see what each should take." - Mark 15:24.
