There is no thriving democracy where there is no thriving middle class. Restoring America’s middle class is the moral task of our generation. Incremental change will not achieve that, and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

Whoops! This has been happening under Biden.

That's why everything that President Biden is focused on: $35 cap on insulin, forgiving student debt, bringing manufacturing jobs back to America, the Infrastructure Act, Green Energy jobs, all of it, is focused on rebuilding the middle class. You can drop out now, @marwilliamson

Incremental change is like trickle down in that it's laughable and won't work. Just hopeful fodder for the masses.

We live in a republic with democratic institutions. But I do agree with restoring the middle class.

In a sense then all should be middle class. No rich no poor. All equal.

Development for the greatest good should focus on growth and support for the lowest incomes. Like pause all the development for the rich ppl they do not need new innovations we need innovations for the poor. Development at the bottom for stronger overall society

The absence of a middle class is a Symptom, not cause, of not living in a democracy.

You don’t want to restore the middle class. That’s the problem. You want to create another giant wave of a dependent class.
