10. I live in a blue state so I don't know what elections are like around the country
Mon Dec 1, 2014, 07:49 PM

Was income inequality addressed at all in the past election? Because if it isn't a huge focus in 2016 then the Democrats will truly have fallen down on the job. This should be an outrage to 99% of the population and/or to anybody with a human heart.

I admit I only read liberal sources of news and opinion, so maybe I see a lot more about this topic than a mainstream voter, but it feels as though a tipping point is being approached... goodness, I hope so.
