The economy of other countries is fine.
Our economy is not fine, because of the same greedy people who don't want decent wages, or decent opportunities or education at the higher level for all, who want that.
Read "What Went Wrong" by George R Tyler.
That book shook me to me core.
In Germany, France and Scandinavian countries, since 1985, the wage increases are above 150%. Australia doesn't come close, as it has given its workers only a 60% wage increase.
But where is our nation? At a friggin' one half of one percent!
So what has to be done is nothing short of a revolution. Which given how this important election is being stolen, if you add up the purges done to the Sanders voting lists, the calling of the election before even 2% is in, and all the rest of it, might require a revolution out in the streets.
