The new work week includes doing 2-3 peoples work and getting the pay rate for about the year 1995. We are going backwards instead of forward for pay and quality of work. Health insurance rates are crazy. The only one it's affordable for is the insurance companies as they've hammered out deals so ridiculous that they are collecting money and having to pay zero or a very small fraction of the total bill.
The good news is that more and more of the deceptions are being brought into the light. Government, Banking, Corporate fraud, and the tide is changing. It will be interesting to see if some of the Judges have had enough too. As the Judgments are handed down. The people are certainly fed up enough. It will be interesting to see if the next chapter is more like a revival of the French Revolution American style or if people will continue to take this abuse.
The taxes are even more oppressive. 15% at $10k and 20% at around 30k. The middle class if it even exists anymore? Is more and more oppressed. Everyone in the lower and what used to be the middle class are having to work two and three jobs just to keep their heads above financial water.
One of the banks responsible is having to pay 5.7 Billion in fines. I'm hoping they get lots and lots of jail time for their crimes. I'm also hoping that the idiots that chose to drag us into this mess by bailing them out get jail time too. The irresponsible decisions of others need to stop impacting the masses. We'll also see if its finally time to get rid of a Government that seems to think that we are it's subjects instead of the other way around. Government has long forgotten that it exists to serve the people.
It will be interesting to see how the cards fall?

The Spin On Bullshit!
The Four Hour Work Week was a book that promised the small business owner would have more freedom and be able to work from any where. Here's what the corporations did with it. They used it as the perfect excuse to save money and increase shareholders profits.
Congress spun it as a bill that would benefit developed and undeveloped countries by putting the workers on an equal playing field as far as pay. The reality is that it took developed countries and made the workers have to go backwards in pay. The workers have to work 2 and 3 jobs to make up for the pay that they lost as they watched their jobs walk or run out the door to overseas workers.
Most people in undeveloped countries are living on $20 to $30 a month. There is no worker in a developed country that can compete with that. These workers are graduates with bachelors or masters and some even have PhD's. These are highly educated people that have loans to pay back for the promise of a better life that these degrees were guarantees for.
In walks the greed of congress and the corporations that forget that it is these very workers that made those profits possible. Without people having a decent standard of living the taxes start to stop coming in. Without people making a decent living you have no consumers. It is very much like the parable of the person who killed the "Golden Goose" so they could supposedly have all the gold at once. They soon realized too late that without the goose there were no longer any golden eggs.
