Study after study has shown that the rich are getting richer at a rate faster than the total wealth of this country is growing. Hence, the lower classes are losing out to the rich. And still, you want to defend the rich. You to fold this neatly into rich vs. poor, while, I suspect (or hope), you understand there is much more to the issue that ideological sloganeering. I get very annoyed when someone suggests that its okay that the rich in this country are getting richer at the expense of the less fortunate. I get furious when the rich start a war and expect the children of the poor to fight it. I get incensed when a CEO screws up in his/her job and is paid millions to leave. I get jacked when I read about Terrell Owens getting paid a $49 million contract to act out and take up the behavior of a six year old. To my knowledge that isn't "ideological sloganeering" but rather its calling a spade a spade and asking for a fair shake for all people in this country and not just a select few. Instead of the cake going more and more to these slobs Interesting application of the ideological "warfare" - create an enemy, and dehumanize him. Are you a union memeber now, BTW? I didn't create the rich.......they did that all themselves. Why do you defend them?
