We lose our jobs. The insiders have theirs forever.
Our wages are flat while Wall Street fat cats get ever increasing bonuses.
We lose our health coverage while Congress, the Judiciary, and the Executive branches enjoy the best insurance around.
Commercial credit for most is tight but the big banks have trillions in credit.

We are in the great decline of the ruling elite, addled by nepotistic inbreeding and cronyism beyond imagination; coddled by the government that they bought and paid for; and ready to take everything that isn't nailed down, only to blame the people for having nothing.

devouring the nation and we're expected to say, "Thank you sir, may I
have another?"
