13. DURecd... because THATS what I'm talking about.

My Wife & I have been On Strike since 2006.
We're just waiting for everyone else to catch up.

When The Working Class & The Poor realize we have MORE in common with each other
than we have in common with the rich Oligarchs (1%) and their employees in Washington,
THEN we can have "CHANGE".

As long as the 1% and their mouthpieces in Washington and the US Media can keep us divided,
the Status Quo will remain in place.

Our neighbors in Latin America have given us a Blue Print for "CHANGE".

[font size=3]"The worst enemy of humanity is U.S. capitalism. That is what provokes uprisings like our own, a rebellion against a system, against a neoliberal model, which is the representation of a savage capitalism. If the entire world doesn't acknowledge this reality, that nation states are not providing even minimally for health, education and nourishment, then each day the most fundamental human rights are being violated."[/font]
----Bolivian Reform President Evo Morales

(FDR said much the same thing in his State of the Union Address, 1944)



VIVA Democracy!
I pray we get some here soon.
