One Person! That's What Congress Needs To Understand.

Have you been watching the rioting in England by students who are upset over the proposed tripling of tuition for college in the country? Ya know, I have to agree with them. Not the violence, there's never justification for that, but for education to go up three times from what it is now is surely a bad idea. After all, it really is education more then anything that will create jobs and prosperity. You have to wonder how much of an increase in the taxes on the wealthy in England has been proposed. Do you think their taxes were tripled? I wonder how long it'll be before people in this country are fed up with the rich getting all the breaks and the rest of us being told to "eat cake". Some wealthy folks in France acted like that a couple hundred years ago and lost their heads for it. I don't advocate any such thing here, but a little rallying and even peaceful rioting just might be in order here. The Tea Party started off on the right foot, but they got hoodwinked into thinking they should be Republicans. They shouldn't be either party and they should be both parties. What they should be, is against the continuing and increasingly rapid transfer of wealth into the hands of fewer and fewer  ultra-wealthy people. What we need is an honest, uncorrupted, clear-thinking Tea Party. And then we need to let our elected officials know in no uncertain terms that the free lunch is over. No more support from the wealthy and Corporations will be acceptable. One person ( a corporation is not a person) one vote. And one person at a time gets the ear of any elected official. One Person.
