Good for you Katy,but the problem is,you are the exception to the rule,especially in so called right to work states like Arizona. Here,even good workers can go  literally for years without a raise,and get fired for their audacity when they are forced to craawl and beg for one. I know one fellow who was on the same job for six years,never offered a raise. When he asked his boss why,he was told it was because he was unproductive and unreliable. Now,what kind of an idiot employer would keep a lousey worker on staff for six years? But that kind of cheapskate attitude and employee abuse if the rule in right to starve states not the exception.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Excellent article, Katy. But here&#039;s a caveat: Call these demonstrations &quot;protests,&quot; but DON&#039;T call them &quot;strikes.&quot; 

A strike is when the employees refuse to work, and leave the job. 98% of these &quot;strikers&quot; at these protests are union activists, paid protesters, misguided baby boomer hippies and some hard core communists. 

But almost none of the protesters WORK for the business being &quot;stuck.&quot; The few that do are protesting during their off hours -- dutifully returning to work for their next shift.]]></description>

Probably because Bill knows the GS is unworkable since 95% of gold production occurs outside the United States. What would prevent the formation of gold cartels like they&#039;ve done with oil cartels and OPEC? Then the fate of the US monetary system would be controlled by unfriendly foreigners and our sovereignty would go up in smoke. 

The basic problem confronting us in any monetary system of your choice is fraud and extortion. The fiat system we use today would work fine if it wasn&#039;t managed by thugs who have willfully violated their sworn legal obligations to maintain stable prices, promote full employment and give us a sound banking system. At least we (the people) have the power to replace the Fed since it&#039;s home grown (even though modern day Americans are incredibly apathetic and love to be abused by those in power without resistance). We would be powerless over foreign cartels who controlled the gold supply. Bill probably understands that too. 

The solution is to rid the system of extortion and fraud. Not to hand over our sovereignty to foreign nations.  

Bill does fully understands that artificially manipulating the discount rates for an extended periods of time is placing the nation&#039;s economy in grave peril. And it takes a lot of courage for a man in his position to make such a statement. And he should be commended for it. Heck, the mainstream media won&#039;t even be honest about it with us! lol.]]></description>

Private-sector unionization in the USA is down to 7 percent of the workforce from about 33 percent in 1955. Unions nowadays basically are for government workers, until the government too goes bankrupt.

CEOs make so much because they have manipulated the government to stifle the competition through hyper-regulation, effectively giving us oligopolies. Get rid of Dodd-Frank, Sarbanes-Oxley, AB 32 (in California), etc., and new firms then will be allowed to sprout up, compete, and keep executive salaries reasonable.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Robert Reich, Salon, and Democracy Now and a couple other radical leftys have been caught paying interns less than the minimum wage.  Far less than what Walmart pays.  And Democracy Now was encouraging their underpaid interns to go on food stamps.
