Demand demand

We demand more demand!

And an economic policy that goes with it.

P.S. It's the opposite of 'supplyside' baloney, and it's based on the crazy idea that when workers make money, we spend it; when our wealthy overlords make money, they hoard it or play the stock market with it. Duh!

Occupy Everywhere!

Well, it's happening on Wall Street, so why not Main Street?

Worm's eye view

In the Southeastern and Appalachian US, the worst-off in some communities - the "sand hillers" or "trailer trash," those "as poor as Joe's turkey" - are proverbially so poor they resort to geophagy (eating dirt, either for its minerals, or due to insanity). The frequency of clay eating is usually exaggerated. The poverty is usually minimized or ignored.

“While there is a lower class I am in it; while there is a criminal element I am of it; while there is a soul in prison, I am not free” - Eugene Debs

“Those who produce should have, but we know that those who produce the most - that is, those who work hardest, and at the most difficult and most menial tasks, have the least.” - also Debs
