Burying the white working class

[BillZBubb]

5. This was the goal of the Third Way. Throw the working class out the window.

They did it with the help of many so-called liberals--who were really only marginally liberal on social issues, but downright conservative on economic and foreign policy. The sad part is that they don't see themselves that way, because in relation to how far to the right the republicans have moved, they know they aren't that far out there, so they must be liberal.

The Democratic establishment now doesn't want to talk about class or corporate power. They certainly aren't prepared to really fight for the poor or even the middle class, much less taking on instead in buttressing corporate power.

Sad days.
