       What more is there to say? That about sums it up. Short and sweet, kind of like this countries reign as the greatest nation on earth.Shame how the caring this nation's leaders once had for their citizens has sunk to and all time low.

       Kind of ashamed to be part of this generation - a generation that has risen self-centered greed to an art form. Really feel ill at ease with the direction of this country and how money hungry we are becoming and how compassion starved we are. Such a shame how far about our spirtuality and or technology is. If that gap could be narrowed, I believe it would be a much better country.

       Like I said short and maybe not so sweet !

    The country is showing support for unions. The country wants out of the Middle East wars. The country believes that higher taxes on the upper 1% makes sense. The country has NOT been lost. A very Republican region in Western New York voted against the Republican because of the GOP candidate's stance on Medicare. The public is on the right track.

    Trying to get Republican politicians to back down from their support of major corporations and the upper 1% is futile. Therefore, the Democrats become the default option. The newly minted Congresswoman from New York openly stated that tax hikes were on the table, Republicans still voted for her.

    Congress is now making grumbling noises about getting out of the Middle East wars. You are winning the battle. Now is the time to be optimistic.

    You're winning!
