My critics in San Francisco are pathetic cowards. Deleted entry #4.

All that talk about 'decline', and NOT ONE LOUSY WORD ABOUT THE C.O.W. (Nationwide.)

I have a lot to say in response to the 'Decline Club', but first a few questions for the author:

How is it that you could write a full page about 'decline' in America and somehow overlook the DECLINE of the American Middle Class? In particular, the DECLINE in their NET WORTH. In other words, the DECLINE in the SHARE of TOTAL US WEALTH held by the American Middle Class or the lower 95%? The FINANCIAL LOSS that has been taken by the lower majority in particular over the last 38 years? How in the name of all that is logical could you possibly overlook the RELENTLESS CONCENTRATION OF WEALTH that has taken place over the same time frame? Or the one that took place just prior to, and thereby CAUSING the first Great Depression? The one that was reversed by double digits from 1940-1976 thereby bringing about a TRUE recovery and creating the strongest Middle Class in American History? How in the name of all that is logical could you overlook the fact that all of that progress made from 1940-1976 has been lost? How in the name of all that is logical could you overlook the record high concentration of wealth we now have? How in the name of all that is logical could you entertain even the most remote possibility that our National debt is not related to that record high concentration of wealth?

As I try to understand how anyone with so much to say about 'decline' could possibly overlook all of the above, one question comes to mind. The answer to which may explain such profound ignorance on your part.

By any chance are you a Conservative?
