Wild Wild Left Radio #177 Citizen Bane

When Michigan, the very core of Union activity in the United States, gets swallowed by "Right to Work" legislation crammed through without committee or debate in a lame duck session?  Greed of the few is using labor as worthless human chattel.

When a Hero does his duty to uphold the Constitution and reports in whatever way he safely could, illegal and immoral activities and is tortured for it, as Bradley Manning has been, and the Nation's Press does not bother to report about it? Your rights in such truth telling are long gone.  You are no longer free.

When even Democrats vote for reducing food stamps and cutting Social Security, which does not add to the debt, in an economy already making people suffer badly?  You know life as we know it is over, and we are considered useless eaters no longer worthy of even sustenance.

When in light of this austerity we are sending warships to Syria, adding to our 7, 8, god knows how many arenas of war, in an epic spending spree on colonialism?  Human lives abroad are nothing to the pursuit of more power.

Our own Government has become the bane of her Citizens, and the World.  And like Kane, started from nothing, and in our greed lost everything, and killed the only happiness we could have had.....
