Oriflamme

I do not want you to follow me or anyone else; if you are looking for a Moses to lead you out of this capitalist wilderness, you will stay right where you are. I would not lead you into the promised land if I could, because if I lead you in, some one else would lead you out. You must use your heads as well as your hands, and get yourself out of your present condition. -Eugene V. Debs 1910.

Democracy in action

I read today about the tax cuts on dividends. That means tax cuts for the wealthy. And the tax package also protects many Americans who are about to be hit by the Alternative Minimum Tax.

Well my family is doing well this year. But I didn't see any Alternative Minimum Tax in sight. Exactly how well do you have to be doing to hit that bar?

Love the land of Democracy. Unfortunately in this country it seems it is one person, one vote; one dollar, one vote. Thats something different entirely than democracy, isn't it?
