It strikes me that when all hell broke loose with the US economy in 2008, everyone felt the pain (or so it seemed). Now, it seems like the wealthiest are okay again and they have left the rest of the people behind. That is what, it seems to me, has given rise to the protests and the backlash and the depth of frustration. Makes sense to me; when will the very wealthy (or the politicians who are in their pockets) get it?
Happy New Year, and here's hoping for some real change and real progress and real opportunity for everyone in 2012.
