Obama’s War on basic energy Resources would be a more appropriate title.

By design this socialist regime has by its bureucratic control of energy supply and use dictated how and which resource can be used to create it (ie oil, coal,fracking nat gas) are the main reasons energy prices have soared and created those with limited means victims dependent on that government.

The goal of global marxism has always been to destroy the middle class. They see the middle class as standing in the way of their glorious workers revolution.

And the Universal Service Fees to pay for the “free” phones are why everyone else’s phone bills are rising 10% a year.

What remains of the middle class is mostly supported by government funds, and even services depend mostly on customers who receive incomes from government.

Of course the middle class is disintegrating. As bonds collapse, during debt repudiation/haircut time, the even smaller remaining portion of it will go out of the market and society with a pop.

Shouldn’t have tossed manufacturing overseas, and men out of the job market and out of families. The reckoning for that is coming.

To Obama, we aren’t really the “middle class”. We are, as Marx called us, the “Petit Bourgeois”, the enablers of the capitalists. We prop up the “enemies of the Worker Class” even as they exploit us because we hope to move up to full Bourgeois some day. Marx says that we may be workers but we are also enemies of the Workers and must be destroyed. Nothing that has been done to eradicate the middle class by this evil POS in the White Hut is by accident. He is following the manual...to the letter.

The definition of “working class” has morphed over the past century from average workers to low-paid workers to non-working people on public assistance; Marx would have realized a revolution can not be accomplished with such parasites. FWIW, Obama is simply escalating the attack on the middle class that his Republic counterparts did little to stem.

Marx HATED the middle class.

He came up with Communism as a way to get rid of the middle class.

Using Marx's ideas to help the middle class, is like using Hitler's ideas to help the Jews.

Too bad 40% some odd of the middle class will still vote for the Marxist.
