America's Greatness is Slipping Away

True words in this article by Bob Herbert.  We have no great leaders anymore, just lackeys for the royalty, the corporations who own us and have created the "elites" while the rest of us sink into poverty.  This is what Reagan's "trickle-down" economics looks like. How are you liking it so far?
