I remember when guys on this board who probably don't even make 50K were mocking Occupy Wall Street - as if somehow supporting Wall Street allowed the haters to become part of the Wall Street class.
How's that quote go? "Every poor person believes he's a millionaire down on his luck."
Very well said, Mike. I remember reading a study about how many middle class and lower middle class people support tax cuts for the wealthy because they think one day they will be a part of the upper class.
This isn't to say I support OWS but the fact is that we do live in a corpocracy. Whether you are a democrat or republican or lean left or right, in the end both the sides serve their corporate masters.
