State of Things

Wake up! Wake up!
My husband and I have been having kitchen table discussions since about 2007, wondering why folks in the US were not rioting in the streets. It seemed as if here in the burbs that everyone was working harder and harder and suffering more than ever. We watched as neighbors lost their jobs, had their homes snatched away by the banks and life seemed to get tougher for everyone. I know that my husband's workload has gotten bigger and bigger and raises have been negligible. Bonuses have evaporated and health care costs have gotten so high that you ask yourself, "Can I afford this Doctor visit or prescription." 
Well, Hallelujah for Occupy Wall Street! Finally!
