4:16 pm
significantly on our chevron payroll a few thousand jobs for the billions of dollars in tax stimulus that the government gave the economy same erika's largest corporations are sitting on more than three trillion dollars and not investing in the economy unemployment in the us remains over nine percent where we live in a nation where corporations can profit off a child dying at the same time with their parents in a bankruptcy to their trying to pay for these kids medical bills. what does that say about our country the wall street answer to people's rage and if you kill all three will be nobody held three jobs but as one of the protesters try to put a word of objection we call it all done all done it's not your show i'm talking to these people hold on i'm not talking to you looking like you but talking to you personal success and money have always being part of the american dream when you
