Info overload.

You have to have a lot of free time with you waiting on your new tires.
Otherwise why would you read all that?
A short book report would be nice if you have digested all of that info.

Please tell us it's not news to you that elected officials (from every party) are for sale to the highest bidder at every level of government.

If corporations are deemed "people" these people should be hung.
Lobying should be banned.
Disgusting. I wish I didn't read it just before bedtime.

Gee...I wonder if we're SCREWED with a system like this ???. Maybe we will be saved by all the well informed and intelligent voters that make up the majority at the polls every election. That should throw the electoral college into a unanimous,across the board,save our ass,land slide victory for what is right!
WHEW!!!!!!! And I thought there would be shooting,looting,and begging involved!

If you want your eyes opened read these 50 facts. If you like the current trend America is on, then don't. The Dems, Repubs and the Independamts ALL brought us to where we are now. Not so deep into Washington and they are ALL traitors to the US Constitution. I'm just a working stiff, a stooge, a pawn, to these traitors. It frankly makes me sick. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/50-facts-about-the-u-s-economy-that-will-shock-you/Mark |

Mark You have a unique understanding of the US political system if you lump "Dems, Repubs, and the Independamts" into one group. Maybe you should add the Tea Party Movement and the Occupy Movement too. |

so, what's your point?
all you've done is show me where i should be investing my money, since in reality, nothing will change, and these companies will show record profits next year! there is an old saying; "To the Victors goes the spoils of war".
we live in a selfish society now. things were much different when i was a child. everyone is out for themselves, no one cares about how or when to pay thier bills just as long as they get it today.
i think it's all McDonalds fault, we've become a quick fix society, and everyone wants it now.....
Britman, i'm being sarcastic, but i don't see anything ever changing, anytime soon...... i personally hate being selfish, i enjoy helping others, but often times those others continue to put themselves in the situations that they need help with (AGAIN).
there was a time in America when the big corporations cared for its employee's, took care of thier investments, now it's all "dog-eat-dog".

when they "gave" you health insurance, and retirement/pensions, closed on holidays, offered sick days, had picnics with thier employee's. the company i work for use to do all those things, the hospital my wife works for use to give them health insurance, now we're paying $500 a month just to NOT go to the doctors 'cause if we do we have to pay 20% of that bill!!

If you don't want to start a pissing contest, why would you post it to this board? Almost everything on this board starts a pissing contest!  |

If you were a teacher in the Great State of Texas, that health insurance would be costing you $1,000 per month. |

Neither the TEA Party and especially not the Ocupy idiots are in control in the inner circle of the Washington elite. Most in the TEA Party actually care deeply for the US and for the US Constitution. Some who claim to represent them in Washington have sold them out. Seems like 99% of the Ocupiers don't have a clue and are basically low life jerks with an expectation of other peoples goods, well... just because they exist and want it.
