Blame labor, blame the unions BUT continuously stick up for the greedy fucks that make millions and millions, get tax cuts, while the rest of us poor schlobs have to work for shit wages, pay higher sales taxes, higher hidden taxes and higher property taxes.

Keep blaming labor and keep believing those CEO's are worth every penny.

Meanwhile, in reality because of the greed from those bastards you stick up for. We watch tax bases erode, we watch scandals, we watch our infrastructure degrade to a "D" grade (still haven't had a response to that from any of the right), and we watch as we go further and further into debt because those fucks refuse to sacrifice but demand everyone else does.

How many company CEO's last year demanded wage decreases or benefit decreases while taking raises?

How many Congressmen refused to set a minimum wage that people could live on, while barely passing a SS raise and telling the citizens we need to sacrifice, while their asses voted to give themselves raises? (Not just Fed. but in how many states did this happen also?)

My point is the CEO's need to take responsibility also and sacrifice. Otherwise, the people will tire of it and they will fight back.

Depressions effect everyone.....
