Who is to blame for our problems?

Many wish to put the most blame for the problems we face on the liberal influence from our government.
Most of the problems We face come from the Financial Interests. The Fed, Banks & Wall Street.
The taxing of money that is made on money is treated much more friendly than money earned on wages.
The average worker has seen little or no gain in nearly 40 years. While those with Invested Interest have gained nearly all or the increase gain in that time.
If the wages had kept pace a large share of the problems we face would have been eased.
The poor in this country are trapped by the debt that this Nation has.
All have to pay if only in the Market place. Only a few collect the interest on the Debt.
The greed of just a few put a burden on the rest of Us.
We need the services that the banking interest provide but we pay too big a price for it. There is just not enough money in the hands of the general public to buy up the goods & services to insure a healthy economy.
It is not the amount of wealth some have that is the problem as much as what they do with it.
I look at those of Us on this site as those average people I speak of.
If we wish to ease the pain we all feel it is only when we look at the basic cause of our problems will we be able to ease the impact of them.

agreed, i would like to ad, considering whats going on today, that we as a society have set our selves up for the status of our life style we have today. "democracy and the politics of it" we all together chose what we have today and must own up to it. so i ask all what must be the right thing to do today? we all know inside of us whats right and wrong. i just hope we all pull together and do the right thing.

The hypocrisy is only exceeded by the ignorance.
I went through this in the 60's as a college student.
The students thought they were fighting the establishment, and the establishment was playing them. It is going on right now.

I say that the effort & time need to get through each day has people taking short cuts when faced with coming up with ideals.
They don't have the time or chose not to form their own set of ideals. So they become hypocrites when they pass on ideals that are not their own. This is just plain stupid.
