Researchers also found that only...

If You're Rich...you're living your American Dream

It's sad that many Republicans don't realize the truth of what their party has done to the American dream for the middle class. Mesmerized and hypnotized by Rush Limbaugh and FOX "news" (Rupert Murdoch), they continue to vote against their own interests. They remain loyal to a Party that is dedicated...

Why Gingrich Should Never Be President

Gingrich's arrogance alone should put voters on their guard, but his continued flip-flopping back and forth on important issues proves he is the consummate politician, always putting his finger to the wind -- and changing positions at the slightest breeze.  A typical Republican of these times....

Interesting article about how history repeats itself -- over and over, with the same results, EVERY TIME

Good article about the demise of education.  Should be read by all (but will be ignored by those who most need to read it).   We are headed for serfdom for the majority (the middle class is pretty much in it already) -- and the wealthy will make out for a few more years, until the serfs...

Somewhere along the way in America, a large group of not-too-well-educated people decided what they...
