YOUR LETTERS: Working class is under attack. Educate yourself!

Since the mid 1980s, the working class has been under attack. There is now a category called “The working poor.” Are you kidding me?

Corporate plan:

• First strike: Attack the unions.
• Second strike: Deregulated the news (by eliminating the Fairness Doctrine).
• Third strike: Deregulated the banks.
• Fourth Strike: Break the anti-trust laws.

Maybe this will help you understand why your household is struggling financially. The scary part is it’s going to get worse.

The fix:

1. Stand for the worker!
2. Make the politicians accountable for their actions!
3. Welfare for the rich (insane) Tax increment financing DOES NOT WORK!
4. Silence emboldens the corrupt, speak out for the downtrodden.
5. Educate yourself.
