    There is a war … a war against the middle class and poor.

    The war started a long time ago, they just never bothered to let the middle class and poor know about it.

        Those items don’t fit on a tax form. C’mon! Think like a Republican! Poor = minorities. Poor whites? Who cares? They’ll cheer you on and blame a Democrat.

      I would like to remind everyone that instead of fighting this class war forever, there is a way for us to figuratively capture Berlin and win the war outright. The way to win the war is to raise the top tax rates on billionaires to either the 91% rate from the 1950s or at least the 70% rate from the 1970s. If the billionaires know that no matter what they do they are always going to have a high tax rate, they aren’t going to bother fucking us over on all the class war shit anymore. For one thing they won’t have the money to waste on bribing congressmen and right wing Stink Tanks and super pacs and buying up news media.
