Democrats want to take all our money and return to us one dime out of each dollar.
Republicans want to take all our money and give it to corporations and the wealthy.
Neither is acceptable!

The most effective way to restrict democracy is to transfer decision-making from the public arena to unaccountable institutions: kings and princes, priestly castes, military juntas, party dictatorships, or modern corporations.

From 1940 to 1999, job growth in America averaged nearly 27 percent each decade. But during the 2000’s that all changed. Job grow was stagnant at 0 — yes, that’s no typo — that’s zero percent. The U.S. needs between 100,000 and 250,000 new jobs added each month (depending on which report you read) in order to accommodate the growing work force. Net household worth declined for the first time since the 1950’s. The average American is more in debt and worse off today than they were in 1999. And the outlook doesn’t look any better. Had you went to sleep in 2000 and woke in 2010 no doubt you’d ask what the hell happened. So what did happen?
Back in May of this year I posted New Credit Card Bill Allows for Continued Theft — and the banks haven’t let me down. I’ve been proven right on several occasions. In that post I questioned why our lawmakers wanted to wait nine months to implement a new law that would restrict credit card companies from ripping off consumers. Then I offered an answer: Give the credit card companies time to go into high gear to rip off consumers before the new law took affect. Among many other examples I could offer, this one is the latest.
