America became great when the US had a strong middle class.
There is nothing on the horizon that suggest that the middle class will again be strong and viable. With a weak middle class there will never be a true resurgence for America.
As I've stated many times - Obama is trying to destroy the middle class and has been since the day he took office.
The middle class is the result of capitalism. There is not another country on this planet that has fostered a "middle class" like the United States. NOT ONE.
Obama despises capitalism and would like nothing better than to see only the very rich and the very poor - the poor dependent on the government and ONLY the government.
Unfortunately, as in everything else in his life, he has been a miserable failure and the middle class continues.
