>>It's no secret among their leadership that revolution CANNOT occur as long as there is a strong middle class.
Exactly.
By the way, in some ways "This Land is Your Land" is a great song (the beauty of our land), but how many people know that _avowed Commie_ Woody Guthrie wrote the following verse in that song?
"As I went walking I saw a sign there
And on the sign it said "Private Property"
But on the other side it didn't say nothing,
That side was made for you and me."
(they hate the idea of being able to own property, one of the great concepts of our Republic)
Hated that song when I was a kid for that reason.
