    Say goodbye to the middle class. We just gave what was left of it to billionaires.

      The “middle class” was just a scam our ruling class came up with to make us feel like we’re not at the bottom rung of the social economic ladder so we wouldn’t riot over being taken advantage of for decades. In reality there are only two classes the extremely rich and the poor.

        Nah man my parents were able to build a really nice life from almost nothing by working hard and going to school. That doesn’t work anymore.

          The oppression was there back then too, people put up with it more, and shared their thoughts with strangers less.

          And if you put up with it and do what you are told, the ultra rich might let you build a “nice enough life”.
