The New Economic Reality

When people read in the newspapers about investment bankers causing a financial collapse because they wanted to make more money. When people read about the countless times men and women have died because of the drive to increase corporate profits. When we suffer 11 persons dead and a polluted coastline where hundreds of sea life will die, washed up on oily beaches.When 29 miners die because of unsafe working conditions. When we cannot see our loved ones healed because of lack of money and adequate insurance. When it becomes heresy to fight for a single payer health insurance system. Do we need to overthrow the existing social order? I believe the answer would be yes. As El Hajj Malik Shabazz once taught"by any means necessary."

While reading the People's Daily I noticed that China has purchased Volvo . It is my hope that China will be able to fully participate in the world's economic market. It might be interesting to see what effect China will have on the world's unemployment rate if she is allowed to to have unfettered participation in the economic system of the world.

To give someone an increase in Food Stamps and leave the person without the means of washing him or herself is the destructive pain of the U.S. welfare system. Since many people do not like the idea of an increase in cash assistance , especially in the case of single unemployed or homeless males one, out of respect for humanity or out respect for hygiene, must support the idea of a method of purchasing these items.

If one can forgive a Wall Street banker for his failure to come up with millions of loss investor dollars ,surely a conservative Republican or Democratic Senator can see a small stipend for soap and toiletries. Since most of these products are made of fats; oils and alcohols it might help if a special section of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) be allocated or created t...

The tragedy one finds today is the growing mess purchasing derivatives has done to the economy and the entire world. It is one thing to face massive unemployment; foreclosures and homelessness. It is one thing to watch your government empty the treasury into the coffers of a nation full of bankrupt banks. It is even more painful after months of struggle that I and no other American has single payer health insurance. Not to attack the President, for he has yet to commit the cardinal sin of becoming a righteous right wing Republican. The thing that bothers me as I open up the newspaper is that everywhere in the world States; Provinces ;Regions; Departments; Cities ; Towns ; Villages and localities have been left penniless by a bank scam. The question is whether the executives at JP Morgan Chase will go to jail for what they did to Milan. We hope so. Justice should prevail. Wall Street Reform should prevail and the U.S. Republican Party should stop paying teabaggers to harass the America...
