Yes, I read them. As I said the term ‘classless society’ doesn’t appear. That terminology is from Communist ideology. You throw the names of our founding fathers around like buzz words but neither Jefferson or Lincoln talked about fighting for a classless society.

That was Karl Marx talking about Communists fighting for a ‘classless society’.

And you talking about Mike Huckabee fighting for a ‘classless society’.

That snake oil don’t sell here. We like the classless society we already have and dont think we need the proletariat or Mike Huckabee to change it. And you besmirch the reputations of great Americans when you put the words of Communist ideology in their mouths. Your post #40 was a disgrace. Sell Socialism under your own banner, lets not try to dress it up as the words or intent of Lincoln, Jefferson or Madison.

And the reason you do not find that phrase in early American history is that (and we didn't need anti-Marx reactionary Ayn Rand, to get there) it was a moot point, from the Declaration, onward.

Bye-bye, feudal British paternalism. Hello all are equal, under the law.
