Imagine if there were variations, or subtle colorations! Your average "Progressive" will pee his pants in a two-holer, while trying to decide which hole to use.
This has been going on since about 1973 and both parties have worked to cover it up; but the cover is becoming very frayed and thin. You can’t even say “the middle class isn’t has well off as it was”, because the middle class hardly exists anymore.
Yes the middle class has been taxed to death they have been keeping the country afloat.
