    … And how nice that they could all be pictured wearing their undetectable wigs…

    Class warfare: the rich started it.

    • x-bert says:

      Oh, there you go bringing class into it again.

    • But “class warfare” is nothing more than a Democratic marketing concept. Those of us who live in the real world know it doesn’t really exist.

      • Besides, Democratic administrations have screwed this country FAR more than any Republican. Lyndon Johnson and Jimmy Carter come immediately to mind…

        • Rorsc says:

          Class warfare is the most used tool by the Democratic party.

        • dropping in says:

          I would hardly call LBJ a shining example of a democratic president- I think he was AWFUL. I love Jimmy Carter, but yes, his presidency was a nightmare…partially bc he had to fix what Nixon and Ford did…but it is hard to separate.

          But Class warfare…actually I kind of buy into this- but I do not think it is overt- by my reading of Rich Dad Poor Dad, the way you get rich is by taking advantage of others—-at least partly. I make really good money, and invest, and pay my student loans off- but apparently I am supposed to pretend I cannot afford my student loans while investing that money instead—I think that is wrong- but I think that many pp become or stay rich through those tactics- sounds like class warfare a little to me…

      • PortlandMark says:

        What color is the sky in your world? I’m in management, and I can assure you, I’ve attended meetings where the sole subject is to find out how we can lower the amount we pay our (barely above minimum wage) employees.

        I’m not real popular at these meetings :)

        • Seth says:

          Mark, were you ever involved in the Portland activist scene? Food not Bombs, the IWW, any of that? I knew a guy back in the mid 90s in Portland, name of Mark, who was in that scene. Wouldn’t happen to be you, would it?

          • PortlandMark says:

            No, I’ve been too lazy to get off my ass and help anyone else so far. I’m looking into finding an organization I can get behind; current leading contenders are Habitat for Humanity and Oregon Wild.

            • PortlandMark says:

              Also, I didn’t even know the IWW were still around. I’ve always had a rather romantic image of them being the tough freaking lefties that time forgot :)

              • Seth says:

                Yup, the IWW is still around, although there are less than a thousand card carrying members left. We tend to do little things now, helping bookstore and gas station workers organize.

  4. Rick says:

    face # 3 is Christopher Cox, Chairman of the SEC, in way over his head.
    not sure about #4

  5. Kevin says:

    The middle class is the middle class because they chose not to work as hard as the rich did. There is a thought amongst people in this country that the rich don’t work hard for what they have. Plenty of rich people came from nothing. Don’t be mad at them because you only wanted to work 40 hours a week and chose to have your first child at age 19.

    • Jocasta says:

      I suspect you’re not middle class.

    • hemcat says:

      That is the most ignorant thing I’ve seen written.

      “You’re poor because you’re lazy!”

      Sheesh, I didn’t think the conservatives were still trying to pass off that line. That is OBVIOUSLY the reason for the increasing gap in the upper and lower classes.

      • tristyjoy says:

        And how do you explain that the UPPER class has GROWN while the lower class has not grown any? What you have regurgitated onto your screen in propaganda spouted by those with another agenda.
        In the last two decades we have seen the middle class shrink, the upper class grow and the lower class stay about the same. It follows, then, that more people are moving up into the upper class, with little to no downward mobility at all. This seems like an improvement to me – but I’m just a dumb, money-loving, middle-class conservative so what could I possible know…

    • Guinny says:

      As stated before, this is ignorance at its best.

      Let you in on a little secret: I am not middle class, and I’ve come by my ‘riches’ not by working so much harder than the average American (although I have put in a lot of hours, especially when starting my business, but so has one of my friends, and he went bankrupt) but through a whole lot of luck, being in the right place at the right time.

      I consider myself very lucky to be in this position, and I am all for paying higher taxes if that’s what it takes to give the middle class some breathing room and get our beautiful country back on track. Paying higher taxes = patriotic ;-)
