Austin Hill hit the nail on the head in his article at http://www.townhall.com/columnists/AustinHill/2008/03/30/obama_backs-off_from_his_own_buzzwords. The Democrats love to have class warfare battles. Democratic candidates always try to divide us economically. It's the old trick of divide and conquer.
The idea of there being two groups of people is interesting to me. In the Democrat mind you are either a victim or a victimizer. If you work for someone you are a victim. If you are an employer are a victimizer. That boils things down to there simplest form doesn't it?
So if you work for someone your boss is using you. He's taking advantage of you. You are being abused and beaten down. You are basically prostituting yourself by working for the man.
And as an employer you are pimping out your workers. If it wasn't for your employees you'd be nothing. It's only by abusing your workers is it possible for your company to get ahead.
What a perverted world view. There's nothing positive about this kind of thinking. If there was any truth to this ideology we wouldn't have an economy. Without workers, employers couldn't grow their businesses and hire more people. And without employers, workers wouldn't be able to support their families, buy a home, or own a car.
I'm glad that most people don't buy this kind of populist thinking. But if the Democrats take control of the House, Senate, and White House this fall we could slip toward the socialistic ideology that feeds this victim, victimizers mentality. The danger is if people begin to accept this belief, our economic system could be completely destroyed. America is a capitalistic society not a socialist one.
