Off topic but on your demeanor. 1st you come off as an Ass. So I coment on your lack of education. Then you make a somewhat educated statement. I retort with a well known and proven and accepted theory. And what do you do in return? You further disclose to us the pathetic depth of your ignoreance and absence of the most basic ability of critical thought.

Om dun wich u mang. go back tuh yer ghetto homeboy.

Actually neither "party" runs anything. It might be hard to believe but there is a lot more proof today of the shadow government theory and it fits very well with the agenda that is being forced down our throats and against our own wishes I might add. Almost everthing America votes against is passed anyway. Its no longer a democracy, its a monarchy. Jost noone will admit it yet... :\

Obama is really conservative and reactionary but go ahead and blame this on "liberals" even though there are no real liberals running the country just don't come crying to me when Palin causes the collapse of America.

This was a very interesting talk. You could have discussed why within the context of it the rich benefit from women in the work place but the theory of feminism was marginalised. You know, "I'm not a feminist but...." All indications would point to a masculine controlled elitist group of people gaining as much power as they possibly can.

Also that the growth of housing prices has decelerated in the last few years and now home loan interest rates are rising after years of remaining constant!

People need to stop acting/voting based on "the lesser of two evils".

Vote for third party candidates.

Come to Japan! It's much better here (at least for now). Health care ranks better than the USA and is MUCH cheaper (1/3 that of the US).
Interestingly, Japan has been ranked low on gender issues, but many young women I've met WANT to raise a family (not work). Also, I've seen more young Japanese fathers w/ their kids while mom works.
Yes, women should should have opportunities, but raising a family is the most important job. More support for single parents is needed in both the US & Japan.

Maybe it's just a matter of what-comes-around-goes-around. The USA has been instrumental in maintaining third world dictatorial nations in the past 60 years.

The CIA has driven US foreign policy for decades (often to patch up the mistakes it's made). Too bad it was (is still?) run by a bunch of paranoid alcoholics.

GiGo,
1) Again, on average housing size has not kept up w/ price increases (& quality has decreased). Also, Warren limited her data to family of 4. My first house buy was smaller than my parents'. Adjusting for inflation - mine cost 3x more.
2) What good's cheap money when you need to borrow a lot more?
3) People're living longer - but not healthier. Medical costs & insurance are higher because they're profit driven - not because it's better.
4) Yup. Gov, military & prison growth.
