Middle-class people are less likely to fire people like themselves, for the sake of the bottom line and Wall Street "expectations"? Middle-class people don't install a car elevator in one of their six homes? Middle-class people don't hide their money overseas? Middle class people don't take a tax deduction for the costs of their dancing horse hobby? Middle-class people don't tie the dog to the roof of the car?

Lots of diferences, you dumb fuck. Important ones. And if we're lucky, they'll matter in November.

Imagine there's no middle class ... It's easy if you're Kyl. No poor beneath us Above us an unreachable money pile Imagine all the people ... living for today

Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can We'll still have greed and hunger The Koch Brothers are The Man Imagine all the people .. sharing the crumbs they've left.

You, you may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one I hope some day you'll join us And wake me from this nightmare.
