Obama

wants to help alleviate the foreclosure crisis, but is it enough?

All of these things he's trying to do are well meaning, but there needs to be a halt to the upward distribution of wealth which is destroying everybody underneath, and a complete reversal of tax policy heavily benefiting the rich. As I said, tax rates need to go back to 1950s levels, combined with strict regulations and penalties on companies which outsource jobs and universal health care, and the economic problems would reverse very quickly.

It's political will that is the problem. We have all of these legislators who are on the take from the same financial and corporate interests, and they are afraid of losing contributions if they do the right thing.
