The world is now seeing the economic uncertainty of the U.S. but for many Americans, it has been apparent for quite some time. Economic despair has been spreading across our nation and it can be seen by the rising number of middle class Americans losing their homes. In some cases, joblessness and inability to pay rent has forced people to live in their cars, shelters, or on the sidewalk.

WTF? Feeding the homeless is illegal? Why? And what is the charge for sleeping in your vehicle? If you have no place else to go, what harm could it possibly cause anyone. Are they suggesting you sleep in jail instead of your vehicle? It's the people that own that government property. I have to wonder what the hell is going on in this country that the people haven't revolted over these tyrannical laws.

The rich are highly organized while we are busy barely feeding and clothing our selves. If we can't organize there is no hope for us and right now it looks like there is no hope.

@reverenceforall It's not that the rich are merely organized, but they understand the game. Most folks don't even know there's a game going on. And if they do, scapegoats are strategically created for people to focus their frustrations on. They've effectively used guns, religion, racism, patriotism, etc... to keep people focused on their hang-ups and prejudices instead of realizing the issue is really about rich vs poor of all backgrounds.

@GovOfWolves It's because the masses are content with there life as long as they have there electronics and entertainment. They have become apathetic due to the mass propaganda that is fed to people day in and day out. It is sickening. I'm an American and it is very sad to say this.

~~^~^Since GOP Clown god, Ronald Reagan, Republicans have been waging CLASS WARFARE on the working people of America. The EFFECTIVE TAX RATE for the wealthest individuals & for corporations is the lowest in 50 years. ~~^^Almost all Republicans have signed on to the GROVER NORQUIST no tax increase PLEDGE.~~^^ Because of these COWARDLY TREASONOUS REPUBLICANS we now have a serious REVENUE problem which should be a matter of NATIONAL SECURITY................. Is there not ONE REAL MAN IN THE LOT?

@cmgwebz I know, I was looking for the video where Cris Wallace was going to "get" Warren by asking about class warfare...He said class warfare's been going on for a long time...and my side is winning! Made him look like the a--hole he is.

[cmgwebz]

So you want to tell me what the title has to do with the video? Warren Buffett isn't even mentioned. Total bs titles piss me off.

This is the grim reality of things and I doubt it is only limited to the US. Eventually poverty and class warfare will extend to other countries across the globe.
