Before konservatives pulled the reaganomics trickle down con job on America, over 60% of Americans were in the middle class with pensions/profit sharing/etc. 40 years later, majority of Americans are no longer in the middle class. Gone are pensions/profit sharing.

The rich got their largess from the rightward tilt of the political system in this country. Rest of us got screwed. This is the reason why I always say that people are mad at the wrong people. How do we get people who claim to have been forgotten to know their real enemies?

The corrupt, reactionary, racist, xenophobic, pathological lying and far right GOP want to destroy the economic safety net programs that most of us depend on especially after retirement (if we can retire at all) in Social Security and Medicare if we let them. They don't care.
