No WE are not discussing the author's points. YOU are. As I have explained before, I am not. The only comment I had was pertaining to a choice of words, which Dems often use and I particularly dislike.

Using the words working people to refer to salaried employees and union members as if other people don't work is a smear to all the other people who work, instead of sitting back and living on the dole.

I understood the author's point from the git go. I did not wish to make any comment about the worth of that assertion, just the choice of words.

If you like the word choice, fine. I don't.

You’re too sensitive.

“Working people” simply means those that are fully dependent on the income from their job.
