Pres. Obama said that we all have to make sacrifices in these economic hard times. Agreed. The question is: Are these sacrifices distributed democratically? For example, Wall St/bankers are getting millions in bonuses which they don't have to account to Congress (so much for transparency) while some poor working stiff is getting his hours cut at Starbucks or either job eliminated. Is that fair? Who's sacrificing? What are you willing to sacrifice? During WWII Eleanor Roosevelt told Americans to re-use their tea bags. Are you willing to make such sacrifices in the economic hard times suddenly upon us?
