Washington keeps handing massive bailouts to Wall Street giants and multibillion-dollar annual subsidies to the likes of Big Oil, which is a nice boost to the bottom lines of the 1-percenters. But these giveaways do nothing to perk up America's grassroots economy, which not only is where the rest of us live and work, but also is the only place that can generate real national prosperity. Congress can't seem to grasp a basic law of nature: you can't keep a mighty tree alive (much less expect it to thrive) by only spritzing the fine leaves at its tippy-top. The fate of the whole tree depends on nurturing the grassroots.Sadly, America's corporate and political powers today are content to be a bunch of leaf spritzers, blithely oblivious to the dangerous shriveling of the grassroots. To witness the damage they're doing, just look at our nation's desiccated minimum wage
if we really want to help The Pres. bring about that change, first we need to remember he said, "yes we can" not "yes i can", no man is an island unto himself.
realizing the damage right wing ideology is doing to this country and it's population is the first step each step after resending all the hateful racist bigoted laws they are trying to impose to assure their rule, Romney said, "my plan, nothing changes", believe him this time he's telling it like it is, on the real.
minimun wage Set at $7.25 an hour three years ago, its real value has since been gutted by inflation, reducing the wage's current purchasing power to a sub-poverty level of $6.75 an-hour. That's only $14,000 a year for full-time work!
this is suppose to be "by and for the people", all of us not just the republican people. recognize
we are the grassroots nurture us "we the people", not "them the corporations".
we are the grassroots nurture us "we the people", not "them the corporations".
