New Jersey's Christie: In a despicable crop of governors hellbent on serving the outrageous needs of the plutocracy.
Twenty-five million Americans looking for full-time jobs last month could not find them. How is the American political system responding to this crisis? In Iowa last week, a governor hot on halving the state taxes corporations pay killed legislation that would have kept open Iowa’s 36 unemployment offices.
The governor says Iowa’s 100,000 jobless don’t need local offices where they can get help finding work and applying for unemployment benefits. He’s urging jobless Iowans to hit their local libraries instead and look for help on the Internet.
America’s rich, of course, don’t have to go online to find help. They have legions of lawmakers intensely devoted to their welfare, as last week’s debt ceiling debate once again demonstrated. Congress and the White House now agree that no “solution” to the ceiling crisis will dare raise taxes on America’s swells.

IF YOU THINK THE LAMESTREAM MEDIA ARE A DISGRACE AND A HUGE OBSTACLE
to real change in America why haven’t you sent at least a few dollars to The Greanville Post (or a similar anti-corporate citizen’s media?). Think about it. Without educating and organizing our ranks our cause is DOA. That’s why our new citizens’ media need your support. Send your badly needed check to “TGP, P.O. Box 1028, Brewster, NY 10509-1028.” Make checks out to “P. Greanville/ TGP”. (A contribution of any amount can also be made via Paypal and MC or VISA—see our right column for that.)
THANK YOU.
