[Peace-discuss] Who's Obama working for?

[C. G. Estabrook]

Obama's “compromise was [in the economist Michael Hudson’s words] all for the 
rich … not to promote stability and recovery … creating new public debt to hand 
out to the bankers which future tax payers will spend generations paying off"...

The prime constant factor in American politics across the past six decades has 
been a counter-attack by the rich against the social reforms of the 1930s.
