It's not just the poor. I'm sure if you looked at the demographics you'd find just as many people who had good incomes, but bad judgement amongst the tent dwellers. The banks and mortgage companies have screwed everyone, and the taxpayers get the privilege of bailing them out yet again.

I'm afraid that's a bit too alarmist. I'm schooling part time and making $10/hr. part time and I rent my own place and am not too far off from being able to buy a modest-sized house.

It must be really nice being a white guy with money, huh?

I also agree that the US economy is headed for the Third World at warp speed.
Use the ballot box before it's too late.
I'm beginning to think this could be one of the most important elections in the history of your country.
I really urge every American to get involved, and bloody hell, take an hour out of your precious lives and go vote. A 50% turnout is not a democracy.
