Roseanne owns state rep on fair wages, taxes, labor rights, and the plight of the middle class. This is from the 90s.

1. Spot on, Roseanne!

Loved the, "Great. I'll come with ya." He's screwed.

2. That show was one of the few that portrayed the working class honestly

at least until the last two seasons. The reruns are still on cable stations from time to time and they've held up remarkably well for topical material.

The neighborhood meet and greet is no more. Republicans are now charging admission to their phony town hall meetings, making sure the people they've screwed can't afford to go and ask them uncomfortable questions.

3. While never a fan of the show or Roseanne, this was

spot on for accuracy.

4. That should be reformatted into a commercial (entire clip length) and played in every state.

10. Us. We can talk with people about what's happening.

Be active, go to demonstrations. The antidote for despair is action. (think that was from Joan Baez)
