Middle class families should not be forced to scrape by with less while oil companies get away with more.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The middle class should not continue to foot the bill for tax breaks for millionaires and billionaires.
My position has been consistent that middle class families should not pay more taxes. That hasn't changed.
No one really wants to send their kids off to die for oil.
We shouldn't be so dependent on foreign oil.
Simply cutting the taxes for America's wealthiest families is clearly not creating the needed new jobs, and that strategy is unlikely to succeed in the future.
If you want to do something to destroy consumer spending, just eat away at the middle class because the other problem we have is the structural problem of middle class America.
We need to move away from oil, period.
There is this notion that the lives of the comfortable-off middle class don't merit being treated seriously and with compassion.
The one thing people seem to forget is the more oil we have, the lower the price and the lower the profits the oil companies make.
The middle class has disappeared. We have a highway to poverty and no roads coming out.
