If what you are saying about "Wiping out the Middle class" would be a good thing than why is our government trying to come up with an economy stimulus package for the "middle class" to help jump start the economy? I am not saying that the idea is a good idea but still they are targeting the "middle class" for this...
I think you and I agree, actually. I am against the thoughts of "wiping out the middle class". That is something that these Libertarians on another site seemed to support. I don't support that line of thinking, however. Like you said, it is the "middle class" who keeps this country afloat. Secondly, I'm in no support of Hilary Clinton at all. If I were to vote for a democrat, I'd vote for Obama.

I guess what I'm trying to get a clearer picture of is the overall thoughts of those on this board about limited gov't verses socialism. Is the overall thinking in line with wanting every American to have a chance to work to succeed, or is it survival of the fittest? By the way, I consider myself middle class as well.
