'Own nothing and be HAPPY': John Hayward details Dem's all-out WAR on the Middle Class in FIRE thread

Meaning MORE dependent.

The great enemy of socialism is a large middle class: a combination of voting power through great numbers, and independence thanks to solid income and accumulated capital. Those people don't vote for high taxes, irresponsible spending, and rule by an idiotic managerial class.

We love that. The great enemy of socialism is a large, successful, thriving middle class.

Yes.

Strong middle-class income means people begin accumulating capital - property at first, then investments and perhaps business assets through entrepreneurship. That's bad news for socialists. They HATE it when a critical mass of voters begins accumulating capital.

The mania for "you will own nothing and be happy" - a society of permanent renters, herded into micro-managed cities, without personal transportation - is a heavy-handed effort to prevent the hated middle class from amassing capital and wealth.
