If we had a democracy and a strong press, this wouldn’t happen. However, this is how the business-land system we live in is gamed. You can't legislate love and care into moneyism or capitalism but that is where it needs to go. In the latest version of the poverty game, with the middle class boiling off, you’re either broke or semi-broke or you’re making it. The question that comes up is how do you fight back so you don’t end up on your back. Need to do something -vs- dong nothing. People need to find their own solutions. The only way I personally see to practically deal with the growing collapse is to use business judo. For me, that means hustle-up and put in the long and grueling work to create a beneficial business that can give back once it makes it. I know most people are not wired to do that. But!
Unfortunately the only way to fight back is to Vote. This is going to continue until Americans stand up and take their country back from the clutches of corporate greed and their political puppet politicians.
Republicans are not going to stop until they turn this country into a bleak Dicken's novel, where the 98% are the peasants at each other's throats for any crumb the 1% has even a whim to throw at them.
