I’m a 1944 war baby and I grew up in “squalor” and I’ll be damned if I wouldn’t rather live that way again than have all these flippin’ modern conveniences and live in the asylum this nation has become.
I take your point but the point is that the upper class have convinced the middle class that the only moral path is to impoverish oneself. The OWS idiots believed this . They believed they were protesting rich capitalists when they were simply doing the bidding of rich leftists.
