Denounced if he does'nt react !?! After all he did draw a Red Line !

good political savy, derivative Marxist commentary but as the USA becomes corporate on all levels everyone "is" working for the man and hardly a living wage in many corporate part time areas such as the fast food and restaurant jobs in general.

Thanks, Kiki, for attempting to bring relevancy to this site

Having invested alot of time researching and thinking into the world's most pressing issues (violence, war, poverty), and being a cleric myself (yes, its true, and my activities here have been vetted by my higher ups - I have only the guideline to stay away from darker material, which is my preference anyway) , I think the answer lies in divesting the uber-rich from their excess and re-allocating that money to help the destitute and create new infrastructures and programs to faciltate equal opportunity for all. Just today, Swiss banks announced they will reveal the names of US clients who have avoided billions in taxes. http://rt.com/business/swiss-banks-disclose-assets-196/. It is this kind of greed that is one of our key issues. Money beyond a certain point becomes pure power and leverage. I object to power gained through financial dynasties and the laws that allow such inheritance to happen. I'm not against wealth, I'm against obscene wealth being used for unenlightened purposes. All this needs to be cleaned up. If we could do it, there would be enough for everyone. I am trying to stay positive and in a problem-solving mode as I see hell everywhere increasing all around me. It's like we live in a bubble here in the USA, and it feels stretched to bursting.

but one I happen to agree with. There's a lot of truth in your poem. I was listening to some story on the news recently about how great it is that America is becoming a manufacturing country again. All I could think was yes, like all the other countries where people can be hired and worked to death for next to nothing. My father was a union man and made a decent working class wage. My kids? They won't do as well as he did.

As to the Syria thing I can only quote on of my favorite songs: "War. What is it good for? Absolutely nothin!"

Sorry for ranting back at you! :D

I would tend to agree that the rant would be stronger if aimed more at the lack of unity other than the way both parties seem to be trying to shaft anyone in the middle class or lower.
