This is an article from the Bloomberg report. It just reconfirms the oppressor's antics against the oppressed. I am not so much talking about minorities, but I am referring to those descendants of the white indentured servants who came to America either enslaved or a slave to a debt owed. While we are up in arms about abortion and "other peoples" wars. "The Capital class" as Marxs calls it is continuing to profit off of the working and middle class. How is it that the middle class and the working class pays the most of the taxes, while the 400 of the wealthiest individuals don't pay hardly anything. These people can afford to pay taxes. Did they ever think that if the wealthy paid a percentage of their income to the government as us "working class people" wouldn't that cut into the budget deficit?
Also it is mighty funny that Republicans want to get rid of programs like Planned Parenthood and Medicaid, but they don't want anybody getting rid of an unwanted pregnancy, yet they don't want to help provide help financially either. So, if you keep your child and you can't afford to take care of your child, then oh well. They don't want to increase minimum wage, but they want to increase taxes and consumer spending.
Our problems have gone beyond black and white, it has entered into rich and poor.

Are you suggesting that this is a new phenomenon? Though we have segmented the course into these divisible sections- they have always intersected. Do you think the issues are more so around class now than before?
