There Was Not Always A Middle Class In Kansas

You may not remember an America without a middle class but you do not need to go back too far in history to get to a point where there were only the VERY RICH and the VERY POOR.

Before World War II, it was rich and poor only. There were a few points in time where a middle class started to form but it never took root and grew. Right before the stock market crash of 1929 we came close to having a robust middle class. Most of us who paid attention to our history lessons know that there was no middle class once the soup kitchen lines formed. It was quickly wiped out.

Surprisingly, through the Great Depression, the rich did just fine.

What you need to know, what you must understand... is that the very rich are absolutely OK with turning the clock back and putting the middle class back in the poor house. Those "high paying" manufacturing jobs are being outsourced and Walmart Greeters just don't make that much.

What will happen when both the husband's and wife's pay does not pay the bills anymore? It used to be that a single working spouse could provide for the whole family. We lost that in the 70's. Will your children have to stay at home until their 30 and work to make ends meet. Will you have to sell the house you have mortgaged to the hilt? Will you buy a old car to drive in? What exactly will you give up?

If you like a new car, if you like a nice home of your own, if you like being able to go and buy things freely at the store... you had better pay attention to this presidential election.

Putting John McCain in office. A man that can't even count how many homes he has. A man that has has lived in the lap of luxury since divorcing his first wife to marry his rich mistress. He does not understand what it means to pay 10% more for groceries, or what it means that gas prices are rising and piching the budget to the breaking point.

McCain does not understand you.

It saddens me greatly that my great state of Kansas, according to polls, will blindly vote for McCain. To do so does not represent true Kansas values.

Kansans should not vote for an adulterer.

Kansans should not vote for someone so rich, he does not know the number of homes his family owns.

Kansans should not vote for a man who so easily confuses the facts.

Kansans should not vote for a man that admits to not understanding the economy.

Kansans are humble people who want what is best for America. As the election draws nearer my deepest hope, is that Kansans reach deep into their soul and take a hard look.

A hard look at what type of World we want for our kids. This is not just another election. This election, like no other, could mean the end of the middle class and a rapid decline of our lifestyle. As rapid as the stock market crash in 1929.

Wake up, pay attention and vote smart. It is too important to blindly march to the drum of destruction for the American way of life. 8 more years of ignorant leadership could mean the end of the American Dream.
