    Please Read all of this. Children need out help in our country. ALEC was on CSpan or one of the other cable news channels. They are hiding under the name of Faith and Freedom Coalition. The only reason that I know it is them is because when I found the money chain to Republicans in 2011, I also found Ralph Reed of Faith and Freedom Coalition. Ralph Reed goes as a Evangelist but is corrupt. ALEC as well. They go under Ralph Reeds name, Faith and Freedom Coalition. Every Republican took turns getting up on state and talking to all of them and what they can do with the majority and a Republican President. Christians shouldn't be in the market of dealing billions of dollars to Republicans so they do what they want. They have also, along with Republicans and their " Makers vs Takers Theme" along with Fox News has echoed across our country constantly during the last few years and has caused the worse epidemic of child death by abuse, child hunger, child homelessness, and child trafficking I have ever seen. I have spent the last 3 years trying to get this out to help the children in the USA. It is horrible. A rich country that Republicans have cut food for the children and poverty. I finally got it to Unicef lately. I have shared this information on both Facebook and Twitter to save the children. The sick truth and it doesn't go over the terror the children have been living in. NATIONAL CHILD ABUSE/Murder STATISTIC Our country is like a pressure cooker ready to blow. I have never seen something like this and getting no attention. No one seems to hear the children s screams. Nobody comes to the rescue. There is too much pressure on our country, t he Children take the brunt. Read below also from UNICEF Our country is looking pretty bad thanks to the Extreme Tea Party. More than 6 million children are reported to Protective Services each year in the United States. By the time you end up reading this, 15 children will have been abused. In the next 5 minutes 30 more, in the next hour 360 more. By tonight there will be 8,000 plus children will have suffered from abuse, 6 of which will die. Now, child abuse is an epidemic. Children are suffering from a hidden epidemic of child abuse and neglect. Every year involving more than 6 million children (a report can include multiple children). The United States has among the worst records among industrialized nations – losing on average between four and seven children every day to child abuse and neglect. More than 6 million children are reported to Protective Services each year in the United States. By the time you end up reading this, 15 children will have been abused. In the next 5 minutes 30 more, in the next hour 360 more. By tonight there will be 8,000 plus children will have suffered from abuse, 6 of which will die. Now, child abuse is an epidemic. There is something very wrong with Politicians that dine and drink with Billionaire's then cut the food for children, causing a epidemic of murder, Child Homelessness and Child Trafficking. I teamed with The National Center of Missing and Exploited Children and Covenant House. Covenant House sets up in cities to get our homeless Kids into safety and food. INPUT FROM UNICEF. Thank God, more help America’s wealth grew by 60 percent in the past six years, by over $30 trillion. In approximately the same time, the number of homeless children has also grown by 60 percent. Financier and CEO Peter Schiff said, “People don’t go hu hungry in a capitalist economy.” The 16 million kids on food stamps know what it’s like to go hungry. Perhaps, some in Congress would say, those children should be working. “There is no such thing as a free lunch,” insisted Georgia Representative Jack Kingston, even for school Kids, who should be required to “sweep the floor of the cafeteria” (as they actually do at a charter school in Texas). The callousness of U.S. political and business leaders is disturbing, shocking. Hunger is just one of the problems of our children. Teacher Sonya Romero-Smith told about the two little homeless girls she adopted: “GETTING RID OF BEDBUGS that took us a while. Night terrors, that took a little while. Hoarding food” The U.S. has one of the highest relative child poverty rates in the developed world. As UNICEF reports, “[Children's] material well-being is highest in the Netherlands and in the four Nordic countries and lowest in Latvia, Lithuania, Romania and the United States.”

    What huge increases? There was the QEO in place for decades capping increases in salary and benefits at 3.8%. Huge? Laughable. Cost of living was twice that.

    Why doesn't this writer tell us how spending more money on the public schools is going to improve them and why huge increases over the past 40 years have not? Does he have any compassion for the generations of kids who are not getting an education?

    As a sovereign nation with a sovereign fiat currency it is not possible for the US to default on its debt. Furthermore, 80% of US debt is owed to US citizens. Are we going to foreclose on ourselves? The problems in Greece stem from their adoption of the Euro, making their finances more like a state's than a nation's where they can not produce the currency required to make their debt payments. Your question only shows your lack of understanding of macro economics and how modern sovereign currencies work. Thanks for playing.
