A 99er's View on Outsourcing and the Loss of the American Dream

There is a certain group of millions out here that have not been able to produce in this economy and who have been ignored by both the Republican and Democratic parties. The Democrats offered a bill a few times, but likely knew the bill wouldn’t move out of committee. There is no risk in offering any bill if you know it is unlikely to pass. The Republicans do not offer anything better in this plight for the unemployed (especially the exhaustees). Instead of offering help, they have offered insults and no solutions at all. How long can America go on in this way? How long will the media continue to lie about the recovery? We do not have a true recovery when there are millions who want a job but cannot find one. This economy will never truly recover until every American that wants to work has a job with a living wage. If a corporation wants to pay a cheaper wage then it should start lowering product prices too. It is time tax paying Americans stop bearing the brunt of the economic suffering while corporations which rely on Americans to buy their products for their profit margin are allowed to grow uninhibited. The unemployed bear the hardest burden of all. Union members, teachers, police, and fire fighters may have had a burden to carry but the unemployed have lost everything. Why are those that have not lost everything top priority? Have Americans developed a false sense of entitlement? The unemployed have known no entitlement they have only known loss for the last 3 years. They have known fear on an intimate level and sacrifice is their middle name.
