the democratic party uses the term inappropriately simply to get individuals angry and against another group of citizens in our country.

Listen- the democrats wouldn't be able to "stir the shit" and get joe public riled enough to raise taxes *if there wasn't a huge amount of anger to be exploited in the first place*. The whole offshoring mess is a hotbed of political emotion not because everyone is really concerned about his or her job specifically, but because it is *yet another example* of the rich not paying their fair share in the USA. Notice when Hillary tried to get healthcare for all in the 90s nobody went for it, I was one who was against it. NOT ANY MORE. We have the richest corps in the world who are exploiting the US citizenry and tax base to their own personal gain- I'm thinking walmart here. You realize that walmart employees *do* really have health care... of course they do, it is provided at Taxpayer expense. NO MORE. Same with this Bush treasury ripoff experiment. The bloated US treasury was created by mom and pop, and their stock market gains in the 90s. Bush's crony friends looted the treasury.

Bottom line, people who were once on the fence about these matters no longer feel like subsidizing the rich and buying into that "trickle down" baloney that never worked anyway. Bush has only his cronies to blame for the backlash that is coming.
