Common Cause

It's interesting to consider some of the "Tea-baggers'" grievances. I share some of the outrage. It's difficult for me as well to accept the $180 billion A.I.G. bail-out. Of course the public was scared silly that if they didn't go along, they wouldn't get along. But when the question arises as to what should be done to remedy the ills of "Capital," that is where I part company with the extreme Free-Marketeers. Maybe there is some grounds for common cause in the midst of the present "polarization?" After all, 80% of the American pubic weighed in recently against the Supreme Court's "Citizens United V. FEC" decision. Turns out most Americans, across a wide spectrum, still don't want the largest corporations to run EVERYTHING.
