You wrote this about Barbara Ehrenreich’s Liberal tract, “Nickel And Dimed,”
the plight of America's working-class poor.”

“It is a terrific read. I highly recommend it today......and have been recommending it for years. It informed me.
Read
Nickel & Dime. It will make you a better American.”
The American Dream Is No Longer Possible…. post #7
And:
“This book gives one a peek into that world of low-pay hard-work while trying to get an apartment, a car, insurance, etc. It gave me a whole new perspective on those immigrant laborers …” Post #11
But it didn’t ‘inform’ you….it mislead you, and as a result you vote for the Bolsheviks.
One reviewer wrote: “This is a book that I wanted to like — I sympathize with the author's motives — but what could have been an interesting project (and an interesting book) is instead
a bizarre Marxist screed about class warfare. Ehrenreich enters her experiment with the end in mind — failure — and she seems to do everything she can to make this end come to fruition.
Nickel and Dimed could have been so much more. I wanted to hear about the people Ehrenreich worked with, wanted to hear their backgrounds and stories and dreams, but very little of that comes through in the book. Instead, we learn about all the little ways in which
Ehrenreich sabotages any chance at success.”
I'm not some neo-con crusader who believes that the poor deserve what they get. I'm a middle-of-the-road kind of guy who leans left on issues of poverty.

I am one of those immigrants, my family worked hard, didn’t rely on welfare or government largesse, and turned out two Ivy League grads.
A young man, Adam Shepard, found Ehrenreich's book so depressing, he went out to see if it was correct. He proved the American Dream was alive and well….and he wrote a book about it.
Scratch Beginnings: Me, $25, and the Search for the American Dream
You read the propaganda, but failed to read a real life experiment that proved the opposite.
And once
you were suckered in, they got you to vote for this:
The Democrat Party is now running on full-blown anti-white racism,
socialism,
infanticide,
opposition to free speech,
standing with criminals and felons rather than law-abiding citizens
substituting illegal alien voters for the American citizenry,
support for rioters, arsonists, murderers, and anarchists,
accepting payment from Communist China for future considerations,
and anti-Semitism… the knuckle-dragging, atavistic pagan party.
Can we agree that you are simply one more easily led simpleton?
