Didn't see this video that was made back in 2011.

Sums up how the rich have killed off America since the 1970's.

Oh please, MoveOn.org. Funny, he blames all the problems of the middle class on the rich yet the majority of the supposed policies that the rich used to screw the middle class didn't come till the 80's. Why did they start getting screwed in the 70's?

If gubment could be trusted to use control with integrity and restraint, then it might be an excellent solution to this problem. Unfortunately gubment is corrupt and has little restraint. Gubment is also largely complicit with the policies that have destroyed the middle class. In matters of economy Conservatives gonna tard out (Romney, really that piece of shit?), flat tax?, everything else on economic matters, and the current liberal make up is a trash bag of self interested dog shit purporting to be pot purri in order to present as a solution to help cure the stench of economic inequality that plagues the masses.

Begs the question of what good does it do to keep handing over more control and powers to an inept and corrupt government who has proven time and again it does little but service the status quo? I'd get used to a system that eviscerates the many to service the few and either get in where the getting is good, or shack up somewhere else.

There is very little common decency amongst men in matters of fruits of labor and reward through our economic system. I'll be damned if I don't keep a glimmer of hope for the likes of E Warren and others to maybe steer this thing back on track.
