It was shrouded in skin color for years as we were "taught" to hate brown people and we "learned" to look down our noses... but it was always about being poor. You see, as the 2% slowly absorb more and more of the available wealth, they need us to marginalize a much larger group of people. So now we must "learn" to hate anyone who is poor... without realizing we are all poor.

Two percent of the population have 98% of the available wealth, which generates 30% of the nation's tax revenue. That leaves 98% of us to squabble over 2% of the wealth as we come up with 70% of the tax revenue.

We are like a 100 pound puppies fighting over 2 pieces of kibble.
