The middle class is being destroyed by the leftists on purpose
People don’t understand that. The leftist social architects envision an America where everyone is uniformly poor. That’s true income equality in their eyes. The social architects will be immune of course.
I think we need to come up with a better term to describe the factions within the uniparty agenda. The leftism that the dems claim to espouse in order to win votes from the 47% is merely a means to an end. Ditto for the GOPe's patriot act/chamber of commies faction when they trot out "patriotism" every election cycle in order to scare up votes.
The uniparty's agenda at the establishment level is neither truly leftist nor free market/conservative. It is an older flavor of fascism, or feudalism if you will, and to understand why so many politicians catch Potomac Fever so quickly one must look at the vast sums of money flowing from K Street over to both ends of Penn. Ave. and then follow the money back to the source.
Who wins from the Cronybus Bill? Not the middle class. Our incentive to take on risk and create new business is being smothered by taxes and regulation while the big boys enjoy direct injections of taxpayer money. Why struggle as a small startup and invite the ire of the IRS and a host of other alphabet agencies when you can sit on your arse, collect welfare checks and talk you all your homies on your new obamaphone?
The agenda is to kill the middle class, confiscate as much of our wealth via inflation/deflation and taxes, and shove as many of the stragglers into serfdom where we can be utilized either as low wage, non-mobile labor units, or systematically eliminated.
And both the Harry Reids and Mitch McConnells of the world are in on it - or at least think they will be spared/included in the winner's circle of the Neo-Feudalist Order.
People started actually believing what they wrote in the Washington Post, NY Times, and Rolling Stone!
