I'm middle class myself, so I don't feel all that bad about it. You don't know how many of my family members I've seen fritter away their lives and fall into dependence on the ones with money. Black holes of neediness, these people are.

I have very little sympathy for that idiocy. And even less for the decline of rugged individualism in favor of asking the government for handouts.

The lower class never had any advantages to begin with so my apathy does not extend there.
