Well something destroyed the middle class. America went along quite well for many years, and had a strong viable middle class, and then some people began yelping equal-rights. It was not only the unions but the minorities, weeping how abused they were; numerous studies have shown that slavery was almost utopian. Did slaves worry about cotton growing, their medical expenses their next meal? And what of American women? All that stuff about equal rights, and the liberals let em get away with it, no, encouraged them to 2whine.
In middle class countries women and others know their place. Many of us can still envision what America would have been like if people still knew their place; tipped their hats to their betters and said sir; sir to even the little gentlemen that went to the better schools. Nations that have a strong middle class of nobles, elites, and wealthy were always superior to these everybody-is-equal-crap-nations.
We can bring back America's greatnesss with one massive GOP election and restore America to the middle class nation it could have been. And that reminds me of another thorn, the founding fathers, some founders, some fathers, they may are the beginners of destroying the middle class. And the communist, Jefferson, copying straight out of Marx.
