Commentaries!

Back to sound off. How many of you are frustrated with all that is going on in the country? Yikes. I have to withdraw from the news programs - Note - I watch progressive TV and listen to progressive radio. I find them getting disturbing - I believe them and think they are correct - it makes sense with what I know and see, but it gets overwhelming. All this negative activity and nothing I can do about it. One of the reasons I am writing this - to get out the word and express frustrations. Afterall, I am one of those "working class" that is getting lost, deprived, ripped off by this country. I am sick of hearing about the Koch brothers and would love to see them arrested without access to their lawyers and money. I love that the Wisconsin people have succeeded at getting the signatures to recall 4 republican senators. WONDERFUL! Democracy in action. About time. I did live during the 60's and watched rebellion. Also, the Franklin Roosevelt era of taking care of the citizens of the United States. I don't know why the republicans now want us to go back to the 1800's where the middle and lower class have no rights and no options.
I mean, let's get rid of medicare so anyone over 65 with health problems can just deal with it until it gets the best of them. I have high blood pressure. Without health care, I could not afford medication. I would live with high blood pressure that would wear on my body and perhaps cause a stroke. Then put me in a nursing home for the poor where I just die, or I never even make it to the nursing home. Go republicans. Go Paul Ryan.
