I don't think you're really dense, kingu.

I've not made it personal, try to be civil and make sure you maintain the same quality in dialog.

We fought a war over that, back in the 1860's, except the cheapest weren't called "employees."

While this might have been what revisionists put forth today, there are ample writings from the time that very clearly state what the issues were behind the civil war.

BTW, it isn't class warfare -- it is fighting for a classless society, instead of abusive paternalism. Paternalism is for Old (Socialist) Europe.

Let's take that and run with it.. Name the top three richest people on the planet... You're welcome to go look it up. Look at their roots. None of them inherited their money, they made it. Even the person you target, Rush Limbaugh, built his radio empire out of nothing. If all these people can amass such incredible fortunes, what does this do to your theory of paternalism?

I'm sure if you continue your research, you'll find the home of paternalism is the US Department of State, something the Huckster seems to hold in high esteem.

It's still being countered, thank God.

Last I checked, I think Huckabee was running counter to the "peace comes of giving up chunks of Jerusalem" crowd in the State Dept. (and Fred Thompson, who agrees with them).

Well said. We are all guaranteed equality as human beings. That doesn’t mean we are guaranteed equality of outcomes.

You have to work for it.
