Remember the old adage, the devil's in the details? Well the major
reason He's there is to distract and muddy up the issues
When jobs are pouring out of our country, and when working class
families are struggling to stay afloat, and when people are working
two or three part time jobs at low wages in hope of keeping the lights
on, and when our children's education is ransomed and they have little
hope for jobs that will enable them to pay off their debts, and when
the working class becomes poorer and deeper in debt while the rich
become richer and move their headquarters out of the country, and when
corporations become more powerful than most nations, when all that and
more occurs, to Hell with the details! Something must be done.
The System is broke and must be fixed. That is, the Working Class
System is broken. And who do we think is going to "fix" it? We keep
turning to the very ones who profit from this Greed driven System.
Isn't it time that we, the common Americans, take control of our own
destiny? It's time to toss out the old rule book, and that includes
the TPP, and write new rules that include the well being of All
Americans. And it's long past time to admit that Capitalism is only
good for the Ruling Class, and needs to be placed in the dusty
backroom of History.
