So sick of what is happening in the nation and world-wide! World-wide "austerity" is simply social Darwinism at its worst. If there are to "austerity" measure put in place in any nation, it should also include "profit and price" controls. Otherwise "austerity" only means that the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. The obscene wealth increases across the world as the poor working classes in those so-called capitalistic bastions of democracy and free enterprise is simply sickening. If leaders truly care about their own citizens there will be definite profit and price controls for corporate personhood and more help for the 99%.
