Streaming 7/4/11: Here’s Why Not
The fixes for the healthcare, Social Security, and defense debts which are swamping our nation are really not difficult. Nor would it be difficult to give the people of this country the right to vote directly for President and Vice President.

In this program, Dr. Porter discusses our fiscal and governmental problems and their solutions in very specific terms. But he also explains why the solutions will not be applied and why he believes that America will continue its downward march from an egalitarian democracy to an oligarchy of the wealthy, a downward march which will eventually make our nation unrecognizable to its founding fathers.
