Robert Reich for President

If you don't know who he is, you should.  Don't worry, I didn't know who he was, either.  But I reaped the benefits of his thoughts without knowing it.

He's the former Labor Secretary under Clinton and a president of economics and politics.  In other words, the only period in my life where the government had a profit and unemployment was AT IT'S LOWEST- yeah, his policies, his thoughts.

This man seems to be the only one who actually UNDERSTANDS how America is no longer the country where dreams come true.  We're worse off than Ivory Coast!  We're America the Ashamed.  It's just like I've been screaming:  corporations are in charge because they have the money.  We live in an era where the unions and collective representation of the peoples of America do not exist because of corporate bullying.

The ONLY solution here is to remove the power from corporations.  It's not through violence.  It's through taxation.  Did you know that I currently pay 36% of my hard-earned salary to the government, while the rich pay 11-15% of theirs?  Seems like mandating that everyone pays the same would really free up the money to bring back government jobs and programs (like the Freaking LIBRARY!)- think of how much another 15% of 3 billion dollars PER CEO PER YEAR would do for the American economy!

The only way America is going to recover from the plummet that we currently are in and regain our jobs and self respect is to sue the 1% CEOs and billionaires for ruining our lives- for ruining America.

The problem is that we're all scrambling and groveling for the schilling that they throw in the ground in front of us because we're freaked about affording gas to get to the job where they overwork you so that you're too tired to put up a fight.


Hillary, if you don't run and hire him, I'm voting for him for President.
