Re: Bush bashing. This downward spiral has nothing to do with political parties. It is about the "elites" in this country controlling everything. They believe it is their manifest destiny to run the country. The educated middle class is a threat to their position.
Make no mistake about it--there is a concentrated effort to weaken the middle class in America. To assign blame to one political party over the other is only helping the effort. If you are a Democrat and think "your" party rises above such actions, you are WRONG. Same for Republicans.TC
shooter said:taken from an online interview....
"In this exclusive interview, Barbara Ehrenreich talks about the thin line between the middle class and the working poor and why she wants to slap the next person who insists on the power of positive thinking.
In general, I think it's easier for liberal affluent people to be concerned about those who are chronically poor. Harder to have compassion for the IT person down the street who may be heading to the working poor. And by and large, I found the white-collar people more withdrawn and depressed. Even if they had a job, they were terrified of being laid off. The white-collar person might be only six months away from being in a blue-collar job, if they have a job at all. But part of being in the middle-class is absorbing certain prejudices; white-collar workers may believe they are smarter and more hard-working than those in blue-collar jobs and so this shouldn't happen to them."
Not to start a Bush bashing, but he is killing the middle class...and guess where Pilots are on the class scale. If anyone thinks it goes up from here needs a pee test. The downward spiral is in full motion.....HOLD ON!
inline said:Blame Bush. Yea, that'll do it.
Why would you consider a pilot at a regional airline to be "blue collar" and a pilot at a major "white collar?" Thats like saying the guy driving the city bus is blue collar but the guy that drives the Greyhound bus is white collar.Turbine Pilot said:we are blue collar at the regionals and slowly turning from white collar at the majors to blue collar.
