So here I go.

You guys are missing the point because you're looking at the fire from on top of it. Back away 30 -40 years and it come down to balance of power.

Not the right and left.

Not the three pillars of our government...that work so well.

But rather manufacturing versus retailers.

Somewhere along the way "consumption" became the new American sport, and the retailers more than the manufacturing base, that brought us to the party, by the way, gained power at every level and took over trade policy.

Simple as that.....

It's not the rich, it's our government.

And the middle class, it's moved to China. And they are overweight.

Here, we'll forge a new course. Because we're Americans and I seriously believe we'll find a way to get ahead. Thanks to the NSA we know what everyone is saying.

Just saying,

Spyder from SC

it's not the rich, it's our govt? er, the rich own and control the govt. legislation and regulations, all at the behest of big business.
note the regs removed that allowed the banking meltdown. some people made a ton of money with all that.
the health care law, written by health insurers.
corporate welfare is double the welfare paid out to people, with even the koch bros receiving subsidies. exxon/mobil, with record profits, receives subsidies.
corporate tax breaks, offshore accounts, etc. the rich pay good money for the laws to help them get richer. and the pols get rich too
