    vote for people that will help build the middle class up again

    The point of the middle class is to split the working class in terms of income and wealth, so they spend their time antagonizing each other and mostly ignoring how the upper class is stealing everything.

    We don’t need a middle class; we need a strong working class.

    You want a class that’s got more education? Educate the working class. You want a class that’s got more wealth? Enrich the working class. You want a class that’s got the time and inclination to make informed political decisions? Deliver workday/workweek reform for the working class.

      I think the middle class and the working class are the same? But yes, do all of those things. Free healthcare, college and university education.

        Yes, but the corporate media does its best to portray the illusory “middle class” as somehow different from working class or the socalled “lower class”. It’s just more divisive bullshit to try to make the working class fight over crumbs.
