The middle classes (liberals and conservatives) are now being savaged by the wealthy corporate class, because they (middle classes) either cheered or ignored the subjugation and degradation of the lower classes by wealthy corporatist and landowners, starting with slavery, jim crow-ism, sharecropping, through present-day entrenched toxic discriminations.
In modern times, even liberal Californians voted to overturn the Rumford Act of 1963, which prohibited discrimination in the sale, lease and rental of real property on the basis of race, religion, sex, marital status, physical handicap or familial status. An overwhelming 65% voted against extending basic human rights to blacks who were the chief beneficiaries of the Rumford Act.
So to see them now on the receiving end of the same malevolent mind-set, including being hit with high unemployment, outsourced jobs, foreclosed homes, obscene profits on Wall Street, and voting against their best interests through racist fears etc., is a reminder that karma often comes slowly, but it always arrives.
They have been so savaged that many of them are now embracing the Tea-bagging/Tea-Party fraudsters, and just elected a significant number of genocidal tea-thugs to further oppress them and take what little is left of their middle class.
I should be charitable and welcome them to the lower classes of which I am a part, and which they always despised. In this class are poor, middle income, and highly educated wealthy blacks, including President Obama, all deemed by the US Constitution and many whites, to be less-than, by virtue of being black.
But I won't, because they probably don't appreciate being lumped in with this class after multiple decades of being on top. I think I'll just let them stew and steadily decline under the onslaught of their masters of predatory capitalism, that are oppressing them while claiming to 'feel their pain'.
And to complete the 'Karma' circle, the ex-President whom they elected twice and who did so much to turn their dreams to ashes with his war-mongering, reckless deficit spending, crony capitalism with his bankster pals, and sociopathic sanctioning of torturous water-boarding and other outrages, began hawking his revisionist memoirs today, while desperately hoping none will remember his 8-year reign of lying, error and terror.
Sorry Prez, I am remembering, even if they won't...
