    But you see this easy they would be getting an …undeserved benefit (gasp!!) and we can’t have those.

    I kid you not, this is what the conservative brain thinks.

      Yep, punishment must be part of the deal, even if it costs us 3 times as much. This is how we know that, for conservatives, the cruelty is the point.

        It’s honestly stunning how much they value cruelty. This is why we shouldn’t spank our kids. All it teaches them is to add a pointless step for violence before actually problem solving.
