WTF is There Left To Recover?

Recovery? What is there left to "recover"? - Democratic Underground

Will we recover our domestic manufacturing base?

Will we recover living wage jobs that contribute to society-wide prosperity?

Will we recover a strong unionized work force that guarantees fair wages and protections for all workers?

Will we recover a thriving middle class that not only provides for itself but also makes socio-economic upward mobility possible for those at the bottom?

Will we recover a time when seeking to buying products "made in the U.S.A." wasn't an exercise in futility?

Will we recover a progressive tax system that sees the wealthiest paying a share not less than the working class?

Will we recover a strongly regulated capitalism that guards against the abuses of the greediest among us?

When the powers-that-be speak of "recovery", just what exactly do they think this "recovery" will consist of?
