Right-o. Republicans are codifying the transfer of wealth to the ultrarich and the transfer of risk to the middle class. The question still is, why aren't Americans up in arms about this? Do they think their precarious financial position is due simply to bad luck? Don't they understand how their government stacks the decks against them ever more? It's insane. They're going to blame outsourcing and illegal immigrants but the real culprit is the GOVERNMENT and, therefore...US.

Is there anything you like about this country? (other than that people tolerate your rants and raves?) Btw, what effect does the strength of the US dollar have on the profitability of US corporations? In which direction has the US dollar gone since 9/11? In which direction has corporate profitability gone since 9/11? In what direction has the unemployment rate gone since 9/11? Hows that relate to corporate profitability and worker productivity?? You may open your Blue Book now. You have 24 hours on this open book test. Hawk
