from Ashland, Oregon, watching Michael Moore's newest documentary Capitalism: A Love Story. Naturally it was a movie describing how we got into this current economic mess, focusing on foreclosures, "dead peasant" clauses by employers wanting to cash in on employees' deaths, and especially the crooks on Wall Street who control the economy and Congress and how they screwed it the hell up.
Yes, the average people need to take action because there are far more of everybody else than there are of the itty-bitty numbers of rich who have profited from the rest of the people. The main problem as I see it is apathy, although it may not last that much longer.
The lack of jobs may be the catalyst for people taking to the streets--finally.
