Second Roundtable: Democracy in the New America Pt. 2

If we have a stimulus that doesn't help all people, it doesn't work for America. For a change, people with good will are moving into the White House.

Rev. Grant Stevensen, President ISIAH - The crisis that we face in this country is not only about failed policy. It is also about a bad balance of power. It's the same people who sit at the table making decisions that effect "regular people." Big oil companies and CEOs are sitting at the table. Regular people should be sitting at that table too. There's a difference in what needs to happen in Youngstown, OH is different from what needs to happen in St. Paul, MN. Who else knows better than the people who live in those communities.
