"New Ladders Of Opportunity Into The Middle Class"

George Bush talked about "the ownership society".  Obama talks about "new ladders of opportunity into the middle class".

Can someone please tell me what the real difference between these phrases is?  Does either phrase say ANYTHING about greater equality?  Does either one address the huge elephant in the room? 

I think not.  That's the unfortunate thing about our politics today.  That's the unfortunate thing about our society today.  We have forgotten all about "We The People".  we have totally lost the egalitarian impulse.  We no longer give a damn if children go hungry.  We no longer give a damn if folks are homeless.

This, the richest society in HISTORY (or so they tell us) actually has people going hungry.  People freezing to death because they are homeless  --  and, we don't give a damn.

At the very same time our "conservatives" call themselves "Christians".  They are "Christians" who ARE "the money changers".  They worship MONEY.  It isn't the idol they worship, it's the GOLD.

I think all these haters should be ashamed of themselves.  Hate just for hates sake.  Mean, narrow, evil people, judging everyone while never looking into themselves. 

If they want to see "the anti-Christ"  --  they need only look into a mirror.

By the way   ----   how did that "ownership society" thingy work out?
