YEP and guess what? Now the UPPER middle class or mid business owners are next...because NOW the UPPER ESCHILON..is picking them next for extermination..like the lower middle class people just went through. And because most of them are republicans who think they are in the rich "CLUB"..are going to soon realize they will be in the "other club" where they are starving with the majority. It will be too late to LOOK UP as the cause of their problems and not downwards to point blame.

Speaking from inside both America and the US (one inside the other), yes, hell yes, definitely yes we're broken.

Sad thing is, if we go down we're taking the whole world economy down with us!

Speaking from inside both America and the US (one inside the other), yes, hell yes, definitely yes we're broken, and we've broken up even more since this talk almost three years ago.

Sad thing is, if we go down we're taking the whole world economy down with us!
