You can’t use socialism to help the middle class. You can’t do it.
It’s not possible.
But that’s not going to stop politicians from trying.

The middle class, with its ambitions and mobility, is simply not compatible with the societal structure that socialism desires to achieve -- a two-tier society composed of a.) the proletarian masses and b.) the governing elites.
