On top of that, nowadays workers have to pay higher health care costs, higher fees for education, higher gasoline prices, plus looking at ever diminishing retirement funds. ````Why isn't there a single program on radio or TV, or a single regular column on a major newspaper regularly addressing the interests and concerns of regular people, salaried workers struggling hard to make ends meet?

Peace.
