What we need is a "21st Century Full Employment Act for Peace and Prosperity" which would make it a mandatory requirement that the president and Congress attain and maintain full employment.

Raid in Yemen

With all the media attention to the "raid" in Yemen, what do we really know about this raid?


Was it coincidental this eight year old girl, whose father and brother were murdered in separate drone attacks targeting them, was killed?


Who killed the Navy Seal? Was he killed by "friendly fire?" If not, who was shooting?


Would we have even ever known about this raid had Navy Seals not been killed and wounded?


What gives the United States the right to conduct such raids in a foreign country?


A raid we know was concocted by Obama and authorized by Trump.


Doesn't anyone except for me want to know what went down in Yemen?
