You wouldn’t believe (or maybe yes) how many struggling, regular schmuck commuters I hear saying “But but we can’t tax the Job Creators!” Meanwhile they’re spending two hours in traffic each way, taking any shit from their four bosses while trying to keep their 2011 Camry in one piece and scrounging enough for mortgage, streaming, and the third star on the fourth stripe on little McEllough’s tae kwon do white belt.
It’s the evil brilliance of Republican marketing. And just maybe, the mistake being made by modern Marxists is ignoring the so-called middle class in favor of the blue collar classes only. Goddamn it I’m pretty bourgeois, but comes down to it, I’d give up a few things to have free health care and education for everyone, and Uni for those that need it.
