Newark Police Layoffs Threaten Crime-Fighting As Budget Cuts Spark Fears

Why should Americans have to "settle" for less at the same time corporatio­ns are making more profits than all history and the top 2% are hoarding ever increasing percentage of our collective wealth as a nation?



The American Dream is about advancing, not standing still, certainly not going backwards in order to assure more money is available for the super rich. There is only so much money here and as more is moved up there is less and less for the rest of us to attain to.



Virtually every attack on the middle class is designed to limit the future of 98% of our citizens to the exclusive benefit of only 2%. To me that is not democracy that is a plutocracy­. We are almost there now.



"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquilit­y, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constituti­on for the United States of America."



This is "We the People" not "We the Corporatio­ns". There is an "us" v "them" The "us" is the average American citizen. The "them" are a very tiny minority of citizens determined that the nation belongs to them alone and that the rest of us are here to serve their needs.
