Yeah, a really strong middle class


This is what jobs-is-a-three-letter-word Joe Biden had to say about a task force designed to build a stronger middle class: "This Task Force will be an important vehicle to assess new and existing policies across the board and determine if they are helping or hurting the middle class. It is our charge to get the middle class — the backbone of this country – up and running again."

America is more than the middle class (of which I rest firmly). I wish our leaders would quit with the class envy stuff and promote policies that build a strong America. I don't want to be made stronger only so someone else is made weaker. I want to succeed based on my merit and not because the government taxed someone else to death to give me an extra $13 a week. Just give me back more of my own money instead of sticking your hand in my neighbor's pocket to alleviate my suffering, real or imagined.
