“It is an ironic thing, but it seems that the elites are overwhelmingly the enemies of the middle income people in this country. They live in their gated communities and use their money in every way to insulate themselves from the consequences of their “high moral” acts. They do not mix it up with illegals at Walmart or in the grocery stores of their neighborhoods — those who themselves go to the grocery store. Their liberal politics have turned the public schools into a jungle...and they, of course, send their own kids to fancy private schools. (Even with all their advantages those kids need only be mediocre performers to get “legacy” slots at Harvard, Yale, and UVA, to name just a few prestiguous schools famous for their dull graduates from political families.)
And, of course, they never take the kids to McD’s...the cook fixes them something or maybe their au pair takes them out for the occasional Happy Meal.
They definitely do not fear that fifteen people will move into the house next to them and park cars in the yard.
Most of this applies to RINOs like Bush just the same as it applies to Dems. The material conditions of these people’s lives is assured...their splendid homes in extremely undiverse neighborhoods, their evenings at restaurants where they thoughtlessly drop a hundrd bucks for the entrée, and their vacations in luxury locations...again behind gates. (Illegals, of course, are very helpful in maintaining this lifestyle: manicuring their hedges, waxing their luxury cars, chauffering their rugrats to their fancy schools and tennis lessons, staffing all the resorts and restaurants where they pass their time, etc.)
But best of all for the elites, massive immigration is a TWOfer...no, a THREEfer! Not only do they have a serf class to wait on them, their investments prosper as the gush of cheap labor feeds the economy, but all of this gives them a smug satisfaction...they are helping brown people from a third-world country escape poverty.
These traitorous SOBs are also, of course, destroying the America that people of more moderate means live in. My fury at them...at practically the whole inside-the-beltway establishment...pols, journalists, K Street leeches...all of them....my fury is beyond words. They deserve no better treatment that traitors received in rougher times.
(I don’t mean this to sound like an anti-capitalist screed. I am free market all the way and don’t begrudge anyone a luxurious life that he has earned. But if he is proping it up with the sellout of the country...well, I’d like to put him on trial.)”
Excellent description of what is happening!
