death of the american dream

If you're like the millions of others like me out of work and getting more and more pissed about it, this is the site for you. After receiving a pitiful wage from the federal government in the form of slave wages, I mean unemployment (almost every country doles out at least double what we get here), I dutifully went to pay my taxes. Knowning that I would owe something, I was shocked to discover that your taxes are done on the same level as if you were self employed. This means you were taxed at a 10 percent tax rate and the fedreal government covers nothing. This results in thousands of dolars being owed by people who can least afford it. Even worse, on the nightly news that night was a story about how great hedge fund maangers were doing. They're doing great with our tax dollars given to them by people like myself who can barely afford rent. Add that to the fact that our congress went on a two week break without extending benefits, which will cost the states millions in retrofitting (should they decide to extend it again and also paid with our taxes). Enough is enough. We need to stand in one loud voice and say we will not put up with this anymore.
It has come to light that the american dream is no more. That only England and Italy have worse upward mobility than here in the Western world. So if you want the american dream of a better life, move to Denmark. They're in the top five. Sad. Even worse is we put up with this nonsense.
The Supreme Court has turned this country into a fascist dictatorship. What you ask? How is that possible? With this rule allowing unlimited spending by corporations, your vote no longer counts. Fascism by the way is the combo of state and corporate power. Sound familiar. Rules to demand fair accountability and direct spending to candidate are under attack and will probably also be swept away. At that point, fascism rules all.
Only mass demonstrations and the fight to elimiante corporate welfare will end this. Violence will not solve anything (not yet at least). But neither will our vote. No matter who you put in, they will be controlled by special interests. They have done a great job of manipulating the masses to fight one another on health care and abortion rights. Only when we stand togather will we realize that the true enemy are the CEO's and the uber-wealthy. Our time has come. WE NEED TO STAND.
