[quote=Anonymous]Why is it we have to have a society where the poor will stay poor and the rich will strive to do everything in their power to keep them there? This is not the American I grew up in. We used to believe in giving everyone an even chance. Now, we are all about "I got mine and I'm keeping it!" It is a sad commentary on the greatness we have lost. We here all this talk about American "exceptionalism." What made America exceptional was our great and ever expanding middle class. It seems we have abandoned this idea, and we are allowing corporations and the rich to dictate to the rest of us how our country should be. This is wrong. I cry about it every day. I feel we are a lost cause. [/quote]
