I think this 1% thing is far oversold. I think the number of people who think they are actually doing OK is closer to 50-55% (the silent majority?) I see a few people here talking about how badly other people are doing but I don't hear anyone saying they are poor themselves. In fact we seem to have a bit of a contest going about how well only writer is doing (yourself included) yet I doubt anyone here is in the top 1% My point is that the GOP'ers in Congress and the nominee wannabes are not targeting or proposing anything that will help the middle income folks. Drill baby drill, castrating environmental laws, lowering taxes on the rich...that isn't going to lower unemployment. The Drill Baby comment beggars this comment. Increased Domestic Production is being shipped to Europe and South America to prop up domestic prices and because the Eruopeans will pay more. South America will not however pay more? Oil Comapnies have been selling off and closing Refineries domestically, THAT WERE HUGELY PROFITABLE, and blaming it on Environmentalist and Government. The real culprit is the Oil Comapnies cutting refining to choke supply and maintain and increase the price of Fuels. They call for increasing, and it is, domestic oil production even more but we are not seeing and price reduction domestically. Affordable Energy is a foundation, of American Economy along with food. Ethanol drives up prices of both and it is costing us an arm and a leg in subsidies to the Corn Ethanol Lobby. It is driving up the price of food at every level. Soe we have higher fuel cost and food cost to satisfy the socialist agenda which they envision eveybody in sweaters and on bikes or walking and Big Oil trying to bring back the Seven Sisters and eventually a Standard OIl. Who is Washington or what is Washington promoting?? |
