Wages vs profits: when will the debate take place?

[Kellyiswise]

Just because the greedy want to make more and more profits, get more tax breaks our entire national standard of living is at risk as the gap widens between the "haves" and "have nots" and now the gap is widening between the "merely rich" and the "super rich" or "wealthy."

At some point the need for the super rich to keep enriching themselves becomes a real threat to our democracy, our freedoms, and our standard of living as more and more people go un-educated, become the newly homeless and poor, and only decent living can be made by joining the military...large militaries need wars to keep going. When will an honest debate take place discussing how the super rich are really becoming the disinterested enemies of democracy and freedom?

1. When profits are more important than humanity, the line has already been crossed.

There really is a class war being waged, and most of us are losing.

4. The Rich in Washington Call the Shots

Do you really think that they care? Look at the wealth in Washington! From the Congressmen to the Lawyers and Bureaucrats, they are all wealthy! Party makes no divide here!

But, we are on the right track. With this new congress we have the ability to change things for the better. That's if we don't sit on our butts and hope that somebody else does the work.

5. It is our duty to keep the fire to the asses of our representatives.

I believe that we will and that they will make changes the likes of which many have not seen in decades. But we must stay involved.
