In America today,
there are close to 50 million people living in poverty
and there are more than 100 million people that get money from the federal government every month.
As the middle class disintegrates,
poverty is climbing to unprecedented levels.
Even though the stock market has been setting record high after record high,
the amount of anger and frustration boiling just under the surface in our nation grows with each passing day.
And now extended unemployment benefits have been cut off for 1.3 million unemployed Americans,
and it is being projected that a total of 5 million unemployed Americans
will lose their benefits by the end of 2014.
In addition, 47 million Americans recently had their food stamp benefits reduced.
The conditions for a “perfect storm” are certainly being created.
So how much longer will it be
until we see all of this anger and frustration boil over in the streets of our major cities?
[ Happy New Year 🙂 ]
