Our economic system is set up to exclusively benefit parasites.

The finance parasites at the top become rich off of Wall Street speculation and the welfare parasites at the bottom.

Both make profit off of the productive labor of others.

Which is why the middle class,
the most important, productive class, the lifeblood of a nation, is dying in America.

The middle class shrinks every year as more and more people move towards the extremes.

A sick and dying middle class is emblematic of a sick and dying country
How has our system disadvantaged and destroyed the middle class?

In an attempt to lower labor costs, the eternal capitalists in our country have done what one could only expect of them. Attempt to replace the white middle class worker.
Instead of paying the middle class in America the first world wages and benefits they deserve, the greedy elites decided to both export labor to China, where sweatshop laborers could be paid $.25 a day, and import third worlders who could be paid far less than minimum wage
At first this only affected the lower end of the middle class. The manual laborers, the factory workers etc. But the driving down of wages and replacement of workers has quickly spread to all sectors of the economy.
Furthermore our tax code is extremely complicated and full of loopholes for the rich and their lawyers, as well as lower tax rates on usuary and speculation. The average joe can’t afford specialists to do his taxes and most loopholes go unnoticed or aren’t meant for wage earners
The welfare parasites pay no taxes and are a massive collective drain on society with no incentive to ever get jobs or contribute.

But who can blame them? What incentive is there for productive labor? When you can make the same money doing nothing, or infinitely more speculating
It is important to note that it is not communism destroying the middle class in America.

It is the rich, greedy capitalist elite. Always looking to expand profits and cut costs.

This is the end result of a materialistic ideology that puts profits first and foremost over folk
