the better. I was one of the lucky ones that found out about them just after Occupy, so I managed to donate a little here and there after that. But since there are still so many that aren't aware that they're around and doing the right thing, a little extra coverage never hurt.

It's really mindboggling how much congress COULD do to help struggling families, if they didn't get caught up in the drama and politics. They've lost their way. They should be working for the people, not Wall St. That's why it's so good to have RJ around, because they shine a light on a really sketchy phenomenon.
