You guys, I hate to say this but....

Based on the current casualty rate, we SUCK at class warfare.

Even though we didn't start it, we are clearly NOT winning this war. They are launching RPG's at us from every direction while we are just standing there holding rocks to throw. It is immoral that they continue shelling us long after they've claimed major victory. It's like they don't even want to give us a chance to rebuild. They are going total genocide on the middle class until not one of us remains.

God forbid we ask for a few weapons*** for our side they scream: SEE! CLASS WARFARE! CONTINUE ALL OUT ASSAULT!

***4% tax hike.

1. It's been this way since at least Reagan

A lot of people have gone along because they bought into the trickle down bullshit and lived the American Dream with the credit cards.

The thing is, we're entering a new phase where large numbers of people are realizing that they have lost or are losing it all.

And like Dylan sang, when you ain't got nothin' you got nothin' to lose.

That realization is like highly explosive material just waiting for something to set it off.

6. Simplistic and wrong.

Our "collective IQ" is on par with the rest of

the industrialized world...It's our circumstances

which differ.

7. liberals are their own worst enemy.

How many times have liberals on DU whined that we shouldn't criticize Republicans, because it "would drag us to their level", or give us some pap like "we must take the high road"?

When liberals have such watery crud in their veins, no wonder we can't win anything.

9. the democratic party is not an ally in this struggle.

just so you know.

10. On the very local level, it sometimes is a help for people.

However, the higher up you go, the less that is done. Though on the higher levels, there is a ton more posturing.
