I do however remember hearing about Rockafellor, JP Morgan and Carnege starting the Federal Reserve in 1913. That's when they became the richest men in the world. They gave half their fortunes to charity. Seems pretty noble until you realize they only gave up millions and ended up gaining back billions.
The same things happening today. People are now talking about billions like they used to talk about millions. Those robber barons of yesterday caused inflation, just like today's GOP did with all that spending. Remember the Federal Reserves had to print more money several times to keep up with Bush's war spending?
Many poor/middle class people were crushed by the robber barons of the great depression, just like today.
So to the people who are unemployed or lost their homes, it is not your fault. What happened to you was done by ruthless corporations and republican politicians who literally own this country and the political process.
Our founding fathers warned us of them getting too powerful, and clearly they did. Now let's reign them in!!!
Let's see if they own the Democrats the same way they own the GOP. I think the Dems will be much more labor friendly. The GOP does not respect hard work anymore. Hard work to them means blue collar and they only respect white collar.
