The Human Tragedy Of American Capitalism
As Donald Trump continues pointing fingers at the Democrats for our economic woes, now is a good time to clear the air about our economic system in the World today. The fact of the matter is that we have a predominately capitalistic economy but it really hasn't worked for the majority of Americans. Instead, only the top 1% of the population are the true beneficiaries of current economic policies.

Intro to Kai Storm Books - The Come Up!
I've always said that my trolling on Twitter pays off, it always has and Thank God it always will. From the moment I joined the social media 'big dawg' as I like to call it, every tweet I sent/resent, every new follower I gained as well as every follow I clicked allowed me some form of jewel to move on and move up. Don't get me wrong, I troll all forms of social media I'm attached to and just like on Twitter my trolling gives me access to shiny jewels that help me and my business grow. This time, trolling on Twitter lead me to Vocal and just like any opportunity that's been offered to me in the past, I'm jumping on this!
