49. I can't speak for the others but I won't be happy until we have our democracy back.

The problem is the people that settle for next to nothing and call it progress and then turn around and disparage those that "are NEVER happy" as long as millions of children go to bed hungry.

"We seem to be moving in the right direction? " Seems you aren't even sure if we are. We aren't even slowing down the sinking of our middle class. It isn't the direction anywayz it's the momentum. All we have gained in the last few years can be quickly undone unless we get the Conservatives out of control. They are bleeding the American middle class dry.

I will NEVER be happy until we lower our infant mortality rate, poverty rate, homelessness, joblessness, etc.

The Oligarchs are feeding us "cake" and some call that progress. Dare to hold out for freedom and liberty.
