NEVER FORGET THAT THE DUMB FUCK DEMOCRATS BELIEVE A PERSON MAKING $80K IS RICH... forget they have no capital, buried in child support, student debt & a host of neoliberal taxes and fees. So they will just keep fucking families to hide the theft of Wall Street 2 keep fucking us.
Possibly the next grossest thing aside from the Dems fetish with means testing is the "Progressives" who believe this shit as well, punching their neighbors rather than tearing down the oligarchy.

Very little I hate having deal with more than someone who has a lot of mythology for their understanding of the relationship of Federal Reserve (the Nation's Central Bank), the Treasury and bonds. The reality is boring & relatively easy to explain the myth takes you into bigotry
