Quote of the day

This was in a Sojourners email today:

We’ve spent the last few decades shoveling money at the rich like there was no tomorrow. We abandoned the poor, put an economic stranglehold on the middle class and all but bankrupted the federal government — while giving the banks and megacorporations and the rest of the swells at the top of the economic pyramid just about everything they’ve wanted.

- Bob Herbert, "Safety Nets for the Rich"

There is something really wrong with this. I don't see how anyone can miss it.
