The poor and lower middle class simply don't have any money after the cost of living in which to pay the nations debt and it's current bills.
Trying to force the nations poor and lower middle class citizens and their children to do more work for less pay is not going to sell very well, and I seriously believe that the walkout by McDonalds employee's in New York is really just the tip of the iceberg and a early indication of things to come in America.
As a people all of us need to realize that everything that the Republicans have done for the past 12 years have been detrimental to our nation and it's economy.
