Moral obligation is an obligation arising out of considerations of right and wrong. It is an obligation arising from ethical motives, or a mere conscientious duty, unconnected with any legal obligation, perfect or imperfect, or with the receipt of a benefit by the promisor of a material or pecuniary nature.
“If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich.” ― John F. Kennedy
“It is feasible and easy everywhere to undermine administrative power and, in fact, it has been drastically weakened in all Western countries. The defense of individual rights has reached such extremes as to make society as a whole defenseless against certain individuals. It is time, in the West, to defend not so much human rights as human obligations.” ― Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn “If a policy is wrongheaded, feckless and corrupt, I take it personally and consider it a moral obligation to sound off and not shut up until it's fixed”-David Hackworth

We have reached the edge, of the precipice, and have begun witnessing, the milestones of democracy filter through our feet, like tiny crumbs of ancient empires, they fall at first like the breezy snowflakes, reminding us that a blizzard awaits; but all we hear is the clitter clattering to a bottomless and exit less pit of AUTHORITARIANISM! We ALL know the truth, the facts, the spin denying the sincere, but this time each and every Republican in Congress as drunk from the Russian KOOL-AID, and as if infected with the thrills of tyranny and treason rather than delight in the decency of democracy, they have and WILL continue to refuse to stop the free fall of America and watch, instead, its demise and destruction! Even with one of the worst human conditions, cancer, with the patient at Stage Four, there is hope for health and recovery, because of a will to try and try to succeed, to succeed in making the outcome positive. Be it more corrupt religious-oriented judges, the wealthier donor becoming even less burdened with the responsibility of taxes, of just the greed and gluttony of working for some of the people, the GOP remains a roadblock, REFUSING TO RECOGNIZE ITS MORAL OBLIGATION!
“It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world, and moral courage so rare. ... Courage without conscience is a wild beast. ... Until the day of his death, no man can be sure of his courage.”-Mark Twain
If you see something that is not right, not fair, not just, you have a moral obligation to do something about it.-John Lewis
I became convinced that noncooperation with evil is as much a moral obligation as is cooperation with good.” -Martin Luther King Jr
America, wake up, we are suffering the consequences of foolhardy Fascists, not a man or woman in the Republican Party is ready to fight for our rights, but are eager to embrace the chance that once democracy dies, they live like Vampires forever and ever and ever!
