Thieves Running Amuck.

Editor,

Not one penny for kids without health insurance. $700 billion for the 0.1% of the U.S. population who own 49% of the wealth.

The right-wing in this country have exploited every possible means to loot the American economy and rob the American taxpayer: off-shoring the manufacturing sector, massive tax cuts for the rich, billions upon billions down the rat hole of unnecessary war sold on false pretenses, everyone from college students to credit card users to home owners over their heads in debt, privatizing the federal government, deregulating everything from electricity to finance.

Now they're going to help themselves to the mint. Do you see why the Bolivians and Venezuelans, for example, don't want anything more to do with them?
