Several reports say that in America about 300,000 individuals or about .1% of the population controls over 50% of the wealth. Many of these individuals are the decision makers that closed their corporations in the U.S. and moved them to foreign countries for cheap labor, excessive profits, and imported mass amounts of cheap, dangerous foreign products, which have reaped them excessive profits at the expense of America's Mom and Pop businesses.
These are the individuals that hired cheap foreigner labor under the H-1B visa program and forced the Americans they were replacing to train them. These are the people that are outsourcing accounting, telecommunicating, and computing jobs, to again benefit from cheap foreign labor. These people created the Sub-prime mortgage and the credit crisis, gained huge profits, and are being bailed out by our Government while working Americans are losing their jobs, homes, and paying the bills.
These .1% have become so rich that there is nothing else for them to buy, so they lend their vast amounts of money to acquired excessive profits for doing absolutely nothing. This just takes MORE money from the working class and gives them more money to lend back.
Many of these people should probably be called the Criminally Rich, but through wealth, campaign donations, lobbying, and/or just plain corruption they've been able to legalize activities that were unthinkable just a few years ago. These individuals are so filthy rich, that they should be referred to by a more appropriate term, the Filthy Few.
The Filthy Few are an elite and distinguished group. They include many of our top elected officials, but guess who else is in this group? Many family members, CEOs, and upper management of Superstores, Wall Street, Oil Companies, Mortgage Brokerage Houses, Banks, and many major multi-national corporations. It should come as no surprise to anyone as to the reason America's working class is facing such an economic crisis while our leaders appear to be unable or unwilling to do anything about it.
While most Americans would like to have enough money to pay all their bills on time, to buy gifts for their loved ones, take vacations, have a boat on a lake front property, and a worry free retirement, many can't even meet the basics by working 60+ hours a week constantly chasing higher costs.
Bill Ingram, a candidate for Wisconsin's 91st Assembly, CHALLENGES the Filthy Few to replace all their cheap labor, H-1B visa/illegal immigrant employees with American citizens. Bill Ingram challenges them to reopen in America the businesses they closed and moved to foreign countries for cheap labor and greater profits. Bill Ingram further challenges them to bring back to America the jobs they've outsourced to overseas markets again for cheap labor and greater profits. Bill Ingram challenges the Filthy Few to stop importing cheap, dangerous foreign products and to put American made products on their shelves. Bill Ingram also challenges them to lower interest rates so working and retired people can keep their homes.
If they fail to meet his challenge, when elected, Bill Ingram vows to use every resource available to the U.S. and Wisconsin Government to assist them or any other American in meeting these challenges.
You too can stand up to the Filthy Few. Join Bill Ingram and fight to restore the American Dream to America's hard working families.
