That is because Union leaders betrayed their membership. Instead of protecting jobs... they got on board with bringing in millions and millions of lower wage workers. As their jobs got shipped overseas. The double whammy.
Can you imagine what would have happened to the middle-class if Reagan had not cut taxes on the wealthy??
How so... Please use stats and real information... not leftist models and rhetoric. I have done this with others... no serious argument has ever been made... by your side... Let us see if you can be the first.
Populists choose Trump, hoping to check the elites. Now we know, the elites are a uni-party merging with China. CCP is very generous to wall street and the new CIA director. Arizona...
You're arguing Reagan's tax cuts for the wealthy helped the middle class? If so, how? You just said the middle class has seen no improvement since the 70s.
You were the one who said..." Can you imagine what would have happened to the middle-class if Reagan had not cut taxes on the wealthy" I am asking you to explain you point... I lived through the time... I saw everyone's standard of living improve massively around me. Things sucked under Carter. Bruce Springsteen got famous singing about how bad things sucked for the average tax paying american.
Aha, I see massive improvement during Reagan! But maybe the massive improvement was not because of wage growth, but because of cost declines... oh, wait, nope, you've argued there has been massive inflation.
Now... lets go back and look at the Americans who were living here already ... vs the 40 million new mostly poor who were brought into the country... and the 20 million anchor babies... Understand... now.
Incredible how these cultists once identified as such are quick to abandon their old idols for new ones.
