Yeah, the movie/books are stylized, but still very real.

Are they still cutting food stamps? Yes.

Are they still stymieing unions? yes.

Is wealth inequality still increasing? yes

Add more if you like, these are not the only ways that make it real.

I viewed on cspan a doctor/lawyer who details how the public is being driven to diabetics by the corporate food industry. Really fascinating, well documented.

Basically, sugar is really bad, and the food corporations and politicians won't do jack, so we need to get informed, and protect ourselves and kids from deadly sugar.....

Hope clip works, it is worth your time.....

EDIT. At 27 minutes in Dr Lustig claims 50 percent of all Americans headed to diabetes, and that's everyone, not just overweight people

Thank you gsw for post. "50% of all American headed to diabetes"------Shocking. Perhaps food corporations and medical corporations are owned by the same people.

Ya, and they want more cuts. WTF is wrong with people?

It's like dealing with this out of sight/out of mind and any information via the media is a you deserve to suffer for whatever reason.

"they want more cuts. WTF is wrong with people?"

I suppose I'm not supposed to mention it, but they are members of the GOP, and this is what they do these days.

Don't forget the upcoming "improvements" to their sequester system.

They can't get enough of stomping on the little guy.

By love I mean hate the pos and their pathetic trolls.

Holy freaking smokes! Really???? Oh, I see: it makes total sense as the Right to Life people are behind it. Wow, what a tricky ploy to get people to side with their ideology: hit women in their pocketbook.

These kinds of shenanigans are exactly why capitalism - and frankly democracy - doesn't work for most people, but especially minorities. By minorities, I men women, transgender people and others who are marginalized by majority consensus.

I actually have been paying attention to this one. It's the most idiotic crap that I have seen in awhile.

The same faction is using the ACA as an excuse to ruin healthcare for people in almost every State they can.
