And we are amazingly focused on where the main problem is. (US corporations & the billionaires) Of course I agree with some who felt there are other important items I didn't include, but I wanted it to be 'to the point'. With the talk of a negotiated Trans Pacific 'free trade' bill about to be announced, the rumors are it will be done in favoring the corporations being able to override our constitutional laws. I'm glad to be at a place where we all share a view on where our enemies are. Thanks to all who took this time to answer your choices.
