That was still disgusting.

JOOKS, it is quite simple about what needs to be done, it is making the capitalists pay a more fair tax rate, did you know Eisenhower had a 90% corporate tax rate? I have brought this up before about the MERITS of President Eisenhower but just seen it today on facebook, the banner showing 1950's corporate tax rate, they then have to invest in the employees, the infrastructure, the environment, etc. to get the tax breaks recouped from that 90% rate, the jobs stay here in America, the roads get fixed because of the tax revenue, and social security is stablized for 100's of years in the future, BERNIE SANDERS understands this, over $250,000.00 income needs higher tax rate on earned income too besides corporate tax which is a whole another ball of wax..yo

Thats not what history shows... Go look up Wilson, then TAFT and HARDING, and roaring twenties. Then look up what HOOVER started, followed by ROOSEVELT, and the great depression.

I went over this before in my history class. All you had to do was extrapolate some reasonable answer.

You just failed... Sorry.

you must understand the underlying causes of what caused the need for Roosevelt to enact the Social Security Act, and WPA, other SOCIAL programs.. first you need to answer why commodities prices plunged worldwide.. did you know Republicans were responsible?

The Smoot-Hawley Tariff passed the Senate on a narrow 44-to-42 vote on June 13, supported by almost all the Republicans. Europe angrily canceled large orders for U.S. copper and non-ferrous metals (lead, zinc). All commodity prices began to decline again. A soon to be familiar song was heard.

Rye lowest in 30 years, oats lowest since 1922, exports and imports smallest since 1924. All business indices dropping. No hope for early recovery.
?
Crash on June 16 as the House passed the Smoot-Hawley Tariff, again supported by almost all the Republicans. Pres. Hoover wasted no time. Ignoring the pleas from a vast host of the nation's economists, he signed the Smoot-Hawley Tariff on June 17, 1930. Expectations that political leaders would eventually prove capable of handling the international crisis were now shattered by clear proof that they could not even avoid making matters much worse.

notice anything peculiar about the photo, ??.. is some body about to jump? a stockbroker who bet wrong on the market?

No... It was a small plane pulling a banner, telling everyone to STOP having BIG GOVERNMENT... Telling everyone the only legal position to have SEX.

when the true power structure is hoarding it more day to day

so are we supposed to wait around till there are no crumbs left dripping from their feast table?, since as you said, (which is true) they are taking more in everyday until their greed is satisfied and since they now own everything, they can become our master since we are now basically slaves to them, they decide if we can breed, they decide who they allow to eat a crumb or two, they decide if we can drink the water, or do you want a Bernie Sanders via the force of millions of voters to stop the madness..? never forget what happened in Russia when the peasants said they had enough .. Vamp is possibly right, they will need the FEMA camps to incarcerate the rebels who are not mowed down as they try to break into the granaries and meat packing plants so they can eat, it is no more than 50 years out if something does not change..

Dayne, one thing that will put a screeching halt to those crumbs dripping off the rich mans table is to raise corporate taxes! We already have the highest corporate taxes in the world! This is so simple I don't understand why liberals keep falling for the class warfare issue? It has been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt capitalism works and has built the strongest country in history the once former great U.S. Until the P.C. pu**y's got ahold of it!
There will always be rich and poor as long as mankind has a hand in it! Doesn't matter wether Socialism or capitalism!
