Will Any Politicians Speak For The White Working Class?
The upper middle class bias in journalism against the white working class is not a pretty sight. This short article describes the actual situations of white working class people around the U.S. The only problem is that the Republicans are blamed. But why blame them? Their party is the party of the wealthy and everyone knows it. The party that should be attacked is the Democratic Party. They are the ones who claim to be speaking for the lower classes, but they never have.
