After the New Deal, and when unionization was high, much of the working class became the middle class.

Not enough, and not non-white workers, or females, but wealth was far more equitably distributed. When the top 400 individuals have more wealth than the bottom 90% that economy is built on debt.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
