I think the battle is really fighting for the hard working middle class who pay most of the taxes, raise families, are honorable and loyal Americans. They are the ones who served our country in the military, dependably produce, pay their fair share of taxes and support most of the programs big, socialist government wants to put forth. The people who ride somewhat free are the rich who get loopholes written in the law, have outstanding tax advice and dodge some of the taxes. Then there is the strongly democratic underclass that lives off government programs, etc. who are supported by the solid, working ,middle class Americans. The democrats gain nearly 100% support from the richest and the underclass because they play to them as their constituency. Those of us in the middle class, who go to work every day, pay our taxes, and offer most of the support for this government are the mules in the program. From pride I am glad to be in that group but I do believe we need to work hard to get people in government who want to let us keep more of our money, decentralize government and give more home rule and encourage those who are able to go to work and become productive. We always want to help those who cannot help themselves. However, the democrats have created a multi generation group who consider their careers living off programs or the public dole. That should change. It isn't fair and it isn't productive. It only gives the democrats a strong and controlled voter base and it gives the politicans power because they control the pursestrings. Best wishes, Frank
