Reply #75: The deficit and the destruction of the middle class

[kohodog]

are part of this. The huge tax giveaways to the rich, Corporate welfare and the consequences of a runaway deficit will destroy the middle class as we know it. Already the mojority of "new" jobs are low wage service jobs. There is tremendous unemployment and under employment. As the middle class slides downward they consolidate power. But they aren't concerned with the plight of the citizens. It is a global effort. Oppression and slavery will be the result, not true democracy.

The contradiction I see for someone like W is his religious belief system. I understand that he basically doesn't give a rats ass because he's expecting Jesus to come get him. Sop is he truely a puppet with the real power brokers behind him making the decisions?
