Democrats believe we must create jobs, not protect the special interests; build the economy from the middle out, not the top down.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The Republicans are wrong in thinking that the rich create jobs. In reality, many of the richest Americans have been investing in efficiency innovations rather than to create jobs. And the Democrats are wrong, because growth won't happen if they distribute the wealth of the wealthy to everyone else.
Democrats believe in reigniting the American dream by removing barriers to success and building ladders of opportunity for all, so everyone can succeed.
The Democrats have pretty much given up on the white working class. That would require a commitment to economic issues, and that's not their concern.
Real Democrats don't abandon the middle class.
Democrats are fighting for a new direction that includes protecting Social Security as well as making healthcare affordable, bringing down the high cost of gasoline, and making higher education more accessible for all Americans.
Instead of creating new jobs, Republicans gave tax cuts to companies that send jobs overseas.
The last thing they want is a revitalized economy now. I'm not saying the Democrats don't want a strong economy. Don't misunderstand. They just don't want it now.
But I don't think the Democratic Party is at eye level with the middle class.
Democrats don't relate to middle-class people.
The Democrats have essentially decided to move more toward central power, control of just about every aspect of our culture and economy.
