I listen to Signorile's show every day. Michelson is a regular and Sudbay is on a lot. But yesterday, I heard a little more strain and urgency in their voices. It shook me up.

There are large groups of people living with the anxiety and threat of not keeping, or ever being able to get, the things that I take for granted every day. It shouldn't be that way.
