"Me know women get less pay for same job but speaking for all women as man, what feel worse to women is everyone knowing it. So me decree, on behalf of women, no one talk about it anymore." Problem solved!
Greed seems to rule when it comes to coal, oil, fracking, and the nuclear industries. Renewable energy sources are available and if the big corporations would put some of their obscene profits into solar, electric cars, wind, and geothermal energy we could start to reverse some of the harm done.
When I walked into the examination room Fox News was waiting in, it was facing the smallest corner of the room with a distant, angry look in its eyes while chanting "Benghazi!".
Perhaps the only science Murdoch truly believes in is the calculation of tv ratings and advertising rates.
They combine all of their supermarket shopping needs for the week into one large list so they can save time and money to put towards taking away the 99%'s time and money.

If you don't know me, I'm a bit of a student of economics, though "Student" may be stretching it. What I am intensely interested in is the overarching "whole" of how things work together to form the civilization that surrounds us.
It is likely that Pres. Obama may make raising the minimum wage a top priority since it would have a direct impact on aiding those with the lowest incomes (and reducing the cost to the government and taxpayers for subsidizing those low wages of greedy corporations) and make for a better economy.
Human beings are incredibly adaptable which has been a boon but this is one of those times we shouldn't be simply acclimating to the destruction Climate Change is bringing, we need to become active in slowing it down and trying to reverse it.
Ironically, Americans watch and enjoy classic Christmas movies that strongly indict the materialism Americans are focused on during much of the Christmas season.
