Great blog advertisment :P

One of my friends from college is going into law school and has pretty much self-educated himself in so many areas. He's probably one of the more brilliant students to ever have come out of WWU.

Anyway, he's very interesting in gov. and politics, obviously, and has started a blog about his ideas and research. The latest blog post really hit home for me. We Americans are allowing the top richest 10% of our nation not only to rule our government, but to allow them to keep giving themselves tax cuts and excusing them from any real fiscal responbility or payback during a time of economic crisis. Instead, they suggest that the working class pay for our debts single-handedingly by destroying programs that help us and cutting our wages instead. I have no problem with doing my small part to close the deficit, but the key word here is INSTEAD of them doing ANYTHING, those who are most able to do something refuse to admit that they need to help as well and that in all reality, they are the ones who could help the most.

Anyway, I encourage all my readers to have a look at his blog. The post before the most recent one is important to read as well.
