		<description>Wow, that was quite a post, Jeff.  I couldn&#039;t read it all at once---I had to come back and read it in bits and pieces.  And even then, I&#039;m like Debi---I didn&#039;t quite grasp all the concepts.  But I do grasp all too well how the right-wingers are stirring up a lot of my fellow blue-collar friends with populist propaganda.  And I understand all too well that our country is ruled largely by the heads of corporations.  But, like Debi, I would ask---what can we do about it since the people we vote for seem to be beholden to those corporations rather than the people who voted them in?</description>

		<description>I agree. Ha ha--that didn&#039;t work either!

A lot of that was over my head Jeff. I would have to reread a few times. 

Yes, the corporations run the country. What do we do about it?

		<description>So true! Ha...I just submitted that two word comment only to be told it&#039;s too short!  Guess you&#039;ve decided if you were going to take the time and energy to write a dissertation that comments should at least have some time and energy given back :-)</description>
