if Minnesotans hadn't paid $30 billion in taxes for the wars!!!!

Polly Mann, 91 year old activist and founder of WAMM (Women Against Military Madness), talks with people at the Minnesota State Capitol about the effect of budget cuts on people with disabilities.

Minnesota is facing a $5 billion dollar deficit and legislators are looking at draconian cuts to Health and Human Services.

The U.S. cannot afford to continue spending over $3 billion a week on the endless wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Bring the troops home now!!

Join Women Against Military Madness or an anti-war group in your area. End the madness!

3. It's painful to watch these state and federal legislatures

make all these cuts to programs people need! We're becoming a third world country. End the stupid wars!!

4. Why do we let the wars go on and on and on and on and on???

We're obviously only making more enemies in the Middle East and we're cutting EVERYTHING here!

6. brilliant! I loved the people in the beginning. beautiful

Polly is excellent in her interviewing. what a joke the Republicans were at the end.

I wish this was on Colbert or Daily Show. Some many people are affected by the budget cuts.

I am going to send the video to my Congress person and my Senators. We sure don't see these type of interviews on the local news.
