Classless Society

The classless society It is now official the working class is dead we are all middle class except for those who clean the office floors, make products and make cheap clothes, they have no right nor a future, we accept that as we need this big minority of current slaves to keep up our illusion we are a modern nation. This minority -luckily for us –does not see their power if no one produced anything or cleaned streets and offices, we would drown in filth and overflowing sewers; we would pay a them handsomely and respect those who keep our cities livable.

Hush truth!!! I say, no work is degrading, only as we treat workers with disdain and abuse the people who are already subservients, mostly humble and giving. O, the disrespect these poor people bear...unbelieveable!!! Good words here Jan. One love and thanks for your visit. Joy Wells

Is that not the truth? I was thinking something similar while listening to the pres/VP debates. First year I've watched. Glad your blood pressure speaks of your inner youth. My cholesterol is right on par with what Jackie Gleason's must have been. love, Kathy
