In the decades following WWII, this country built the largest manufacturing base and middle class the world had ever seen. What horrible times those must have been-thank god the supply siders came in and dismantled it.

When the middle class gets too big there are too many winners and not enough losers. Next thing you know blacks, women, and god forbid the gays start wanting their rights. People can send their kids to college-an educated population is bad for the corporatocracy. Thank goodness we're going back to a medeival serfdom, I was getting worried about poor corporate america.
