Middle-class warfare

When are members of the middle class going to realize thet the Republican Party has no use for them, and are using them to keep power.

In December,it was the Republicans in Congress who were against replealing the Bush tax cuts for the highest 2% of wage earners. They claimed this is class warefare, pitting the rich against the middle class nd poor.

Somehow they got the American people believing that. Now,we have Republican-led state legislatures promoting class warfare,pitting middle-class public service employees against the middle-class private sector employees. It is called divide and conquer. Soon there will be no middle class, just rich and poor.

It is amazing to me that middle-class Americans can be jealous of other middle-class Americans, because they are public employees, but feel sorry for the top 2% wage earners.

GOP loves bad economy

Last week Goldman Sacks had conducted a study to find out how the GOP budget cuts would affect the economy. The study showed that economic growth would be reduced by 2%, which would pretty much kill economic growth for the year. The effect on unemployment would be 700,000 jobs lost this year.
So why is the GOPs still pushing this course if it is so bad and cost more jobs? The fact is that a bad economy has been good for the GOP.
It gives Republicans more power because they are able to blame the other guy for all the bad things. It also gives them a chance to push through the most radical legislation (bust unions, kill the EPA, FCC)
There is a set of facts that tells all we need to know: More jobs were created during the two years of the Obama presidency, than during eight years of the Bush administration.
If it’s the deficit we need worry about, well they cannot be believed there either since they fought tooth and nail to increase the deficit with the Bush tax cuts. I hope people start to take off their GOP-tinted glasses before it’s too late.
