So What Are the Issues? Do they Affect Me or My Family?

Most middle class Americans could go their entire lives without taking action to defend their country, their communities, or even their families.  But what if these issues that affect others around the country affected you?

Pollution of air, water, and food
Tax dollars being used to support large corporate monopolies
Fellow citizens being sent to war to protect foreign and corporate assets and interests
Neighborhood business closing their doors because large corporations leverage power and greed to make competition crumble
Shifts in climate and natural disasters destroying homes, businesses, lives, wildlife, and ecosystems
Dishonest banking causing the loss of wealth and loss of home for millions of people
Laws being made to support large corporate interests over citizen needs because Congress has been bribed
Taxes diverted from education and schools to support large corporate profits
The glutenous waste of natural resources to overconsumption and inneficiency
Medical negligence (overmedication and overuse of medical procedures) to support hospital, doctors, and pharmaceutical companies need for profits

the list goes on...
