Millionaires?

How can Middle Class compete when

120,000,000 Middle Class Workers own only 7% of Total Financial Wealth in America?

When, 1980 to 2009, top 1% took 281% Increase in Income

and Middle Class got 25%

When 2001 to 2009 1% took two thirds of Income Growth and 90% got 10%

When Clinton got 237,00 Net New Jobs Per Month and Bush got 31.000???

WHY? Rich Investors jumped on new Gamblign Casino called Derivatives Get Rick Quick Wagon and left investments in businesses.

WSA owns America Folks. No one will tell you. WHY

All Major Corporations

All Big Banks

All Big Media

All Congress

All White House

OK,How About politico?
Politico’s Smear Of Allen West: Only Liberal Minorities Are Off-Limits
One would think that progressives, whose favorite pastime is patting each other on the backs for how “post-racial” they are, would be gratified to see African-Americans of all political stripes gaining a voice throughout the political spectrum.
Certainly, the election of two Black Republicans to Congress should be a welcome sign of advancement to the self-described chaperones of minority interests, especially since Allen West and Tim Scott were elected in the Deep South (Florida and South Carolina respectively). But as they continue to demonstrate again and again, the far left’s pining for “diversity” ends where political thought begins. Consider Politico’s recent attempt to smear West, a retired Army Colonel, as a right-wing version of the despicable and shameless Alan Grayson.

Is politico liberal?
Well, considering that the majority of their articles criticize and denigrate Conservatism continuously, I would say a resounding YES, they are very liberal.

Liberals used to accuse Fox News of being part of a right-wing conspiracy to float blog items into the news. It turns out that they have their own conduit for doing the same thing. Politico reports, apparently for the first time, on JournoList, a listserv comprising hundreds of news reporters, opinion journalists, and bloggers, that generates a significant amount of content.
Not surprisingly, its members would rather not discuss it.
I’m less interested in the secrecy than I am in the hypocrisy. For years, writers on the Right have heard the accusations from our counterparts that Fox News manipulates news by coordinating with bloggers, something that in my entire five-plus years of blogging I have never seen, and I think I’d have been in a position to see it. Now it seems like those accusations were more like projection.
In the end, though, the work is what matters. Whether writers correspond with other writers on articles is irrelevant to me. The same goes for the “news” that activist groups coordinate their work. Politico’s earlier exposé of journalists coordinating with the White House Chief of Staff is far more shocking and damaging to the journalists and pundits involved.
Michael Calderone gets in this amusing shot, which makes it worth the price of admission:
POLITICO contacted nearly three dozen current JList members for this story. The majority either declined to comment or didn’t respond to interview requests — and then returned to JList to post items on why they wouldn’t be talking to POLITICO about what goes on there.
I assume Michael won’t get a JournoList invitation any time soon.
