		<description><![CDATA[Americans bailed out Wall Street, handing it a Marshall Plan for reconstruction after its bad bets blew up the world economy.  Now, three years later, happy days are here again for the Wall Street banksters. But the American middle class continues to suffer high unemployment, record foreclosures and rising poverty. So it’s time for Wall Street to pay reparations. It’s time for a crash tax, a tiny sales tax on Wall Street transactions, the revenues from which would pay for Main Street restoration.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Corporate and clandestine campaign contributions have undermined the power of traditional voting, the kind done at polls on election day. Rather than voters, politicians now serve donors, who invest tens of millions and demand returns in the form of self-serving policy. This is demoralizing to those who cherish democracy and the sanctity of one person, one vote. When the 99 percent forced Bank of America to back off its proposed debit card fee, a ray of hope appeared. Average Americans accomplished this by voting differently, not at the ballot box but at the teller window, the twitter account and the Occupy march. They found another way to exercise their franchise and force the powerful to respond.  ]]></description>

It will be over whether the rich should pay more taxes. The President has vowed to veto any plan to tame the debt that doesn’t increase taxes on the rich. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Reckless Wall Street banksters get taxpayer-funded bailouts. Billionaires get tax breaks. Corporations like GE and Bank of America pay absolutely no federal income taxes. But workers don’t get those breaks. As a result, it’s workers footing the bill for the government services that enrich the rich. It’s time patriots stood up to the ultra-wealthy and corporate freeloaders. Join Monday’s We Are One rallies. These demonstrations across the country by religious groups, social justice organizations and labor unions will illustrate that the middle class is mad as hell and not going to take trickster economics anymore.]]></description>
