I have felt elation and experienced deep reflection around the March on Washington Saturday.  I also have come too close to despairing about the horrors that poverty has inflicted—and continues to inflict—on too many Americans.   It's horrifying that those who bear the burdens of poverty must also endure the contempt of the well-to-do.  Here's a link to Bill Moyers and a piece that talks about that contempt.  Let's correct the myths, misrepresentations and downright lies that fuel that contempt wherever we can.  http://billmoyers.com/2013/08/21/cato-institute-report-says-poor-americans-have-it-too-good/
