I disagree with the premise - these are NOT tough times for America's workers.

Did you know that "[t]he ultra rich, or those with investable assets of at least $30 million, increased their wealth by 21.5 percent last year, and investing in residential real estate has regained appeal among the wealthy, according to the "2010 World Wealth Report" by Capgemini and Merrill Lynch Wealth Management"?

The problem is that people are too lazy to get a better job.

Don't be a dummy, be a smarty, come and join the Tea Party!

Quoting Mel Brooks mocking Hitler and the Nazis here just makes you look stupid.

This sounds like standard govt. boilerplate. No bold pronouncements, no substantive ideas, no acknowledgment of the criminals in govt. that got us into this mess (and were certainly not "playing by the rules). In short, no audacity.

I'm sure you meant a choice between KEEPING their home and sending a kid to college.

Most of these jerks are getting just what they voted for and I feel bad for the rest. It looks like that nothing will make the American Moron wake up until things get really bad...and my father being born in poor Ok. in 1930 having told me stories of planting tomatoes in fields he could not see the end of when he was 9...and they are not yet. Poor babies can't afford a new flat screen!
