National Nurses United presents the New Face of America

[jmcfintona999]

the shame of the richest country in the world cant or wont look after their own people, these wall street bankers politicians and greedy polluting need to be held to account one way or the other and get their foot of the working class`s throats

What a great video, makes me proud to be a nurse! What we do, cannot be replaced or reduced. C'mon lets Rise up! We have the Power!

Go Nurses, makes me proud to be an RN

How many of us see scenes like this every day in our communities across this country! It has to stop, and a clear way to do that is to tax wall street the same way we tax main street!

[sanwitecki]

This is the saddest day for our country! When the Corporations can destroy our country for profit! I say, lets boycott! Then they will feel the burn!

Nurses have the highest credibility--measured by their high degree of trustworthiness by the American people. Many Gallup polls.have placed nurses at the very top of any group--higher than physicians and higher than many other respected professions. Nurses understand and care deeply about people. Let's follow their lead. NURSES ROCK!! Nurses are spot on!

We really don't have to fill the streets. Internet voting can put locus of power in the center of the Public Will - like democracy should be!

Bringing voice to devastation, now is the time to RISE UP, stand up, speak up and ACT. We can not let this continue to happen.

The devastation is eerie, yet reversible with a financial transaction tax on Wall Street speculators. These photos show once-lively structures in our communities, now remembered by their remains. We bear witness to the pain in our neighbors' faces and it hurts. Nurses know the healing power of the dignity of a living-wage job, decent shelter, clean air, pure water, wholesome food, a good education, and access to health care.

If the USA had a signficant Financial Transation Tax on Wall's Street's gambling, we could create the American Dream. We need to join all social movements and stop believing that the elected officials will save us. Wall Street bought them years ago. We will never match their money, but we will overwhelm them in the streets.

Mother Jones once said that we elect our own representatives to office, pay their salaries and so makes no sense at all that we must go on our knees to beg them for anything. Pray for the dead and fight like hell for the living! Yes rise up - they have brought us to our knees - it is time to rise up!!

[catri277]

I'm so proud to be a NURSE. Wall Street, Corporate America, and Multinationals are NOT OUR PROTECTORS. Corporate America and their International cronies have written us off. This small percentage of human kind will grab it all if we let them. The "super rich" live by the injunction: WINNER TAKE ALL. NURSES KNOW THE CONSEQUENCES OF THIS WINNER TAKE ALL MENTALITY. LET US NOT BE SILENT.

Thank you nurses for providing leadership, and for helping people to see the human costs of the abstract headlines. We all need to rise up and say THATS ENOUGH!

You piggy people have enough! Leave something for others, like they taught you in kindergarten.

[Godzie1]

I'm counting my blessings after watching this & thank you nurses!

[Godzie1]

A church for sale? Never saw that before so sad our government turned their backs on their own people!

[srvfan61]

Fantastic work!  Nurses RULE!

[triaspis]

Putting real faces on the actual casualties of our suicidal race to corporatism and eventual full plutocracy is refreshingly honest. By putting raw humanity back into the equation you rob the gluttonous corporate beast of one of their fineness and well honed weapons - Their talent for dehumanizing and vilifying their victims. They tap into human natures darkness (jealousy, racism etc etc) to motivate their victims (US!) to actually defeat each other - The natural counter move is doing opposite.

I'm being buried alive in late fees from mortgage and card payments

[mnnurses]

Fantastic, heartbreaking video that helps humanize what's going on. Thank you for creating and sharing this, and telling the truth!
