That video crushes. Just like last week's 60 minutes on all of the homeless in Florida. Kids living in cars. Crappy situation and shameful.
FL: Gov. Rick Scott should be forced to watch this 60 minute special
More than 16 million children are now living in poverty and, for many of them, a proper home is elusive.
Some cash-strapped families stay with relatives; others move into motels or homeless shelters. Sometimes those options run out, leaving an even more desperate choice: living in their cars.
60 Minutes returns to Florida, home to one third of America's homeless families, to find out what life is like for the epidemic's youngest survivors.

The President has abetted the 40-year Republican goal to advance Milton Friedman economics, facilitating the large wealth transfer upward while privatizing profit and socializing risk, forcing working people to take the fall for Wall St. bubbles and speculation. The 40 year run-up of huge deficits is calculated to justify cutting social programs, benefits and wages, and to return to the extreme disparity of wealth of the 1920s, observes economics professor James Crotty. U.S. jobs are further displaced by huge defense expenditures and globalization that encourages capital to flee the country.
Rather than creating jobs, economist Dean Baker states that a primary goal of political right-leaning neoliberals for three decades has been to wipe out the labor movement, lock in regressive monetary policy, push trade and currency policy explicitly designed to redistribute income upward, and use huge deficits as excuse to wipe out public spending.
Just as “austerity” and “shared sacrifice” are Washington code for preserving tax advantages and privilege for the wealthiest while shifting cost burdens to the working class, Republicans use the false frame of “job creators” deserving huge tax breaks. Economics professor Richard D. Wolff recounts that over the long-term assault on workers, suppression of wages has been regarded as “solution” by both Washington and Wall St., who deem a depressed economy the means to cut wages. Wages have been held flat, jobs off-shored and workers’ benefits stripped away, while corporations have looted the government, investing growing profits toward buying politicians and writing self-serving policies of lowered taxes and deregulation.

Governor Scott, " the fraudster ", another darling of the tea baggers, who only won his office by 1%! He was already rich, so out spent his opponent, by running negative adds, many pictures in these adds, obviously photo shopped! Yea, the jobs guy, who turned down federal money for high speed rail, which Florida Voters approved, in an amendment on our 2000, National Presidential Ballot.
Of course he falls in line with rubio, and the Miami Cuban mafia, with closed door, economic, boycott of our neighbor Cuba. Normal trade relations with our neighbor, would probably add hundreds, if now thousands! of new, Florida jobs, and in all sectors, especially, trucking!

I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs. Thomas Jefferson, (Attributed)
3rd president of US (1743 - 1826)
