Poverty isn't just for the working poor anymore, which is why cons want to "expand the tax base" to include taxing the poor.  I'm speaking of the millions of middle class people who have been booted from their jobs and then got foreclosed on, who are now poor.

Without much of a middle class left, the only people to "expand the tax base" to is the poor.

Poverty is the result of predation by the 1%.  They are economically predatory.

You're right on its the first time since Hoover that others besides the poor are feeling the effects of Republican policies.  I am really surprised that none of the poster care to post about the poor. Maybe all your poster are in the top 1% except you and I. Maybe since many in the middle class are feeling the effect of Republicans policy it may cause them to think about their vote and who really cares what happens to the middle class and poor. it's not today's greedy, hateful, selfish, and yes some very racist Republicans. kentay
