The trickle-down effects promised by Reaganomics, expanded by Clinton, and voodoo'd by Bush 43 are now starting to trickle down.

Howard Zinn wrote in "A People's History of the United States," "It is a race in which we can all choose to participate or just to watch. But we should know that our choice will help determine the outcome."
Rise like lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number!
Shake your chains to earth, like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you
Ye are many; they are few!
— the poet Shelley
