Bush supports the strip mining of the American middle classes on the mere idea that certain investment houses and farmers will benefit by the goodies they can sell overseas.

The issue should have been a major topic in the 2004 election but Kerry is a one-sided free trader as much as Bush.

You are exactly right. America has been a great country in large part because it has been a middle class country. But neither party is now willing to defend the economic interests of the middle class.
