Michael, you have just provided exactly the reason why I don't like
these sort of discussions on MD.
There is no reasoned argument here, no wish to engage in a debate, just
a nonsensical and incoherent rant.
Maybe this is the sort of rubbish that passes for debate where you come
from but as this appears to be the best you can muster then maybe it is
YOU who should drop out of the debate and let the grown-ups and those
who wish to discuss it sensibly continue.
I am not against any discussion that is relevant to the MoQ and is
discussed rationally and reasonably. However I am not going to put up
with the talk radio crap that has been a hallmark of these types of
discussions in the past so anyone joining in here needs to be coherent,
rational and reasonable or they'll be removed from the discussion.
I hope that is clear enough.

That's fine company!
Why, it's almost up to the non-existent racial epithets hurled at Dem
lawmakers as they signed Obalosireidcare into existence. (A portion of
which was just rejected since it was unfundable.)

Here's a slapdash relevance: would Lila be an Occupant? What would
Phaedrus think of 'em?

Subject: [MD] The Class War Has Begun
These efforts to domesticate and contain the protests are unlikely to
succeed. It is not frustration that’s roiling America but anger, the
anger of a full-fledged class war. Try as polite company keeps trying
to ignore it, that war has been building in this country and abroad
for much of this decade and has been waged in earnest in America since
the fall of 2008. But the crisp agenda demanded of Occupy Wall Street
will not be forthcoming. The inchoateness of our particular class war
is central to its meaning. America is notTahrir Square or the
riot-scarred precincts of North London, where everyone knows at birth
who is in which class and why. We pride ourselves on being a
“classless” democracy. We abhor ideology. When Americans left and
right, young and old, express anger at an overclass, they don’t
necessarily agree about who’s on which side of that class divide. The
often confusing fluidity of class definitions, especially in an
America as polarized as ours is now, may make our homegrown class war
more volatile, not less.
