Too bad there is probably now way to save a disasterous resume after it has been sent--After all, my older son happened to caught a job opening at our local bank, which I confessed hurried a bit too fast to apply for, then realized only afterward that I forgot to include some information on my current job--like the address. Leave it to me to make that kind of boneheaded mistake; which reminds me I also have reading to catch up on.

As
I mentioned on MSNBC last night, today marks 11 years since the Bush
tax breaks for the rich were enacted. President George W. Bush signed
the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act on June 7, 2001.
Bush claimed (as right-wingers always do) that tax breaks for the rich
would create jobs in the private sector. Well, they haven't. There
were 110 million private sector jobs in America in 2001. There are 110
million private sector jobs in America today. Despite a population
increase of more than 25 million, there are no more private sector jobs
today than when the Bush tax breaks for the rich became law.
In the past 11 years, the number of Americans living in poverty has
increased from 33 million to 44 million. The number of Americans
receiving food stamps has risen from 18 million to 46 million.
"Trickle-down" has not even been a trickle.
But what could we expect? We didn't give tax breaks to the poor; we
gave tax breaks to the rich. And for the rich, the past 11 years has
been one long party. According to the Paris School of Economics, the
top 1% in America saw their share of national income increase by more
than 13% from 2001 to 2010. The top 0.1% saw their share of income
increase by 20%. The top 0.01% saw their share of income explode by
more than 37%, from 2.4% of all of the income in America to 3.3%.
The Bush tax breaks for the rich have yielded the most unequal
distribution of wealth in American history, more unequal even than that
of 1929, just before the Great Depression.
The lurch toward inequality started decades ago; the Bush tax breaks for
the rich only accelerated it. According to the nonpartisan
Congressional Budget Office, since 1979, income for the top 1% has
increased by $700,000 a year, while income for the bottom 90% has
declined by $900 a year. Between 1992 and 2007, income for the richest
400 Americans increased by 392%, as their taxes dropped by 37%.
You see where this is going. The end-game of the Bush tax breaks for
the rich is the end of the middle class in America. No jobs, no
healthcare, no pensions, no home equity, no higher education. The rich get richer, and the poor get poorer.
The Bush tax breaks are due to expire in a few months. We are at a fork in the road.
No more tax breaks for the rich. No. No. No. No.

Residents of the Riverdale Mobile Homes Park in rural Lycoming
County, Pennsylvania, are being evicted and offered little compensation to make way for a fracking operation.
The residents are poor and include children and the elderly and
alternative accommodation locally is hard to come by, as a wave of
workers imported for the fracking has driven up rents.
A company owned by the former head of the Pennsylvania Department of
Environmental Resources got the land re-zoned, possibly illegally, as
industrial and wants to build a pumping station to withdraw up to 3
million gallons of water per day from the Susquehanna River. . . . .
