We are not in this together. We need to get back to what made America great, when the many and not the few were winning. To do so we must stop conflating moral arguments with economic ones. Instead of operating under the fiction that we will all benefit from a proposed change in economic direction, lets be honest. If a few of us are better off, then many are not. If many are better off, then the few will be constrained. Which world would you rather live in? To me the answer is obvious.

You can trust Tom Tomorrow to show you the truth.
One of the few Truth Tellers left in our Media.
The sad thing is that it is the comedians and cartoonists like Tom Tomorrow and Jon Stewart that are the the few remaining sources of The Truth in the USA.
