That it will take a very dire economic disaster to wake people up. Perhaps it's starting to hit home (Delphi demanding $9-10/hr wages); real wages have dropped 2.3% - worst performance since 1981 - while CEO salaries rose 30%; gas prices thru the roof and oil companies reaping in record profits on REDUCED production. People will start to see this and I hope, provided the Democratic Party offers up IDEAS and not Bush-Bashin in 2006, that the Democratic Party retakes control of Congress (the House *and* the Senate). And, it needs to be people not sucking on the corporate/special interest teet.
