50. Who says the "tea baggers" are working class??
Edited on Mon May-31-10 01:32 AM by Starry Messenger
There might be some workers who identify with the ruling classes, but that could be true for members from every sector of society. What is an "educated worker"?

http://www.cnn.com/2010/POLITICS/02/17/tea.party.poll/



According to the survey, roughly 11 percent of all Americans say they have actively supported the Tea Party movement, either by donating money, attending a rally, or taking some other active step to support the movement. Of this core group of Tea Party activists, 6 of 10 are male and half live in rural areas.

Nearly three-quarters of Tea Party activists attended college, compared to 54 percent of all Americans, and more than 3 in 4 call themselves conservatives.
