Zala posted this in reply to my post: People Are Afraid of Socialism Because… I thought it deserved it’s own post: (I love her definition of GOP – “Greed Over People.” Made me snicker.) The USA is a fascist country with some socialist government programs. I don’t get why the Teahadists/Teanderthals don’t see that. “Greed… [Read more…]

…or not… My last letter to Congressman Shuster received this reply. So, is he inundated with email, is his inbox full, have the many thousands of his unemployed constituents decided to email him or…has he blocked email from google?

Here’s the link: Trapped in Unemployment. Mr. Carbone, you chose the perfect word to describe what’s happening out there. Corporate America has and is causing carnage in what used to be the greatest country in the world.
