Would you rather Reagan or Obama for president (assuming Reagan was alive and well, and eligible to run again)?

It certainly is. The 400 wealthiest Americans have a combined wealth equal to the wealth all the rest of us 155 Million Americans combined. If that’s not class warfare, what is?

Their goal is to destroy government and unions, because government and unions are the only counter-balance against them to protect the middle class. Look at the 50s, 60s and 70s when Democrats controlled our government, before Reagan. We had protective trade policies that stopped our jobs from going overseas.

Wages were high enough men could support their families and get ahead while wives stayed home with the kids. We had strong unions. We had high taxes on the rich and low unemployment with plenty of good jobs.

We had Social Security, Medicare, food stamps and welfare. We had paid down our WWII debt and Ike paid cash for the National Highway System. We had strong infrastructure.

Look at us now after 30 years of mostly Republicans controlling the government. See the difference? The Top Ten Percent Income Share, 1917-2008 (note The Great Depression versus now) http://rs.resalliance.org/2010/09/22/ine... Among developed countries, the United States currently accepts the highest level of income inequality.

(It's important to know that no other advanced economy has seen a comparable surge in inequality.) http://csis.org/blog/us-tolerance-income... See also: http://www.slate.com/id/2266174/slidesho...

Foreign aid is foolish and ignorant. We have 10% unemployment and 5% homelessness in this country. Why should we help other countries the governments responsibility is to her citizens not the citizens of other nations.

It is the responsibility of the governments of the places we are giving aid to to help their people.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
