No question that on several levels our U.S. economy is broken; especially when one percent of the population controls so much wealth.
And surely those Wealthy few want to continue this trend: like a tube of toothpaste -- 'squeezing it from the bottom up.'
The facts are right in front us -- 'When Reagan took power in 1980, the One Percent possessed 33% of America's wealth as measured by capital income. By 2006, the One Percent has swallowed over half of all America's assets, from sea to shining sea.'
The main issue here is not that our country doesn't make money --(worker productivity keeps rising just ask Mr. Joe-the-multitasker) it's simply that those doing the grunt work are getting less and less in our paychecks (and that leaves us living from paycheck to paycheck struggling to put food on the table):
Trickle down from rich to poor just doesn't work; definately time for a Change!
