About half reported they are setting aside no more than 5 percent of their income in savings. One in five said they're not even able to save a penny.

capitalism failing miserably. time for workers to control teh jobs they work in. democracy at work. what a novel idea.

And who in their right mind wants to get zero interest from a bank . My money is safer buried in plastic jars in the back yard .

This we can agree on. Both dems and pubs have sold out the American people. It's time for a viable third party to rise up and change the political landscape. Hopefully before it's too late to reverse the damage caused by "business as usual" thinking and actions.

theres a decent chance of it happening too. all kinds of parties around the world are coming into power who otherwise wouldnt have had it not been for the economic disaster.
