Via 'Re-Employ America' on Facebook
Copy/paste this into an email, fax or mailed letter your House and Senate Representatives as appropriate:
Dear Congressman/Senator;
Since the day you took your oath of office you have made it clear that you had no intention of putting the United States economy back on track. You have made it very clear that you had no intention of creating a legitimate environment for unemployed and underemployed Americans to become middle-class taxpayers.
When consumer products are “Made in USA”, Americans work, when Americans work the economy grows and middle-class Americans pay taxes, when the economy grows and middle-class Americans pay taxes the national budget gets balanced and fewer Americans are relying on social services for survival.
Your failure to understand this basic and proven concept has perpetuated a stricken economy. Your failure to act with honor, integrity and patriotism will help your failure to get re-elected.
You are now being notified that because of your intentional failure to represent the people of your district/state your employment contract will be terminated at the earliest possible election.
Thank you for your attention to this matter

Harvard professor on American society: Everything is up for sale | The Raw Story
Harvard University professor Michael Sandel on Monday lamented that almost every aspect of life in the United States was being “sold off to the highest bidder.”
“A market economy is a tool, a valuable and effective tool, for organizing productive activity,” he said on PBS Newshour. “But a market society is a place where almost everything is up for sale. It’s a way of life where market values seep into almost every sphere of life, and sometimes crowd out or corrode important values, non-market values.”
In particular, Sandel condemned D.C.’s line-standing companies, which pay homeless people to stand in very long lines so that lobbyists and others can obtain seats at congressional hearings. The hearings are supposed to be open to the public, but the line-standing companies make is so that citizens have to pay for access to government.
