Hello. This is my first ever attempt to write a blog, so I hope you'll excuse any rookie mistakes.

I am writing this blog to express my profound disgust with the way both political parties continually screw the middle class. The Republicans do all they can to further enrich the wealthy (by wealthy I mean those earning 7 figures per year or more) and the Democrats do all they can to redistribute earnings to the poor ($25,000/year and below). And both parties do it at the expense of the middle class.

I am a huge fan of Lou Dobbs, who I think pretty much has it figured out as well, if not better, than anyone out there. As such I will refer to him frequently and will use as much of his material as I am legally allowed to do.

The upcoming elections are a referendum on the piss-poor job the Republicans have done running the country...but it is highly unlikely that if the Democrats can gain the House and/or Senate things will improve. Both parties are so beholden to corporate America and special interest groups it is nearly impossible for either to recognize how the middle class is being decimated.
