ja, enne trouwens dit gaat ook nog steeds door in amerika http://www.kwru.org/ehrc/bustour/dec06.html For the first time since the Great Depression, millions of people will have no way to feed, house, and provide health care for their families - KWRU This year, our social safety net, which has been in existence for 60 years, is being eliminated across the country. For the first time since the Great Depression, millions of people will have no way to feed, house, and provide health care for their families, here in the richest country in the world. Every day, in every one of our neighborhoods, every one of our towns, every one of our cities, we bury another loved one, another poor woman, man, child, young person… Another farmer who's committed suicide out of desperation in the face of debt and eviction from his land… We will be organizing for the referendum among those whose lives are directly threatened by these policies: From Kensington, in North Philadelphia, where homeless, unemployed families sleep inside of abandoned factories, where hundreds of thousands of jobs which we have lost and are never coming back… to Kansas, in the US heartland, where farmers are being thrown off of their land because they cannot compete against large agri-business to Idaho, where families who have been laid off live in tents along the river in one of the coldest places in the United States
