re: So I feel sorry for the poor working class, but in this country everyone has an opportunity to get educated... In fact, I've received great raises and promotions in the last few years. So I didn't even noticed there was a recession.

That is available to anyone who is willing to work hard to get an education and compete in an even tougher globalized world.


No, it's not. There are only so many seats at the collage grad table, and when those seats are taken the rest are left out. They serve you burgers at McDonalds and bag your purchases at WalMart, and they can't make ends meet at all.

But you are doing just great, so you don't care. I bet they noticed the recession, ya think?

Workers didn't used to be a commodity. They had nice, modest well kept homes, and they has health insurance. The rich were not as rich as they are now, but on a average basis, we were all better off.
