Attack on Middle Class and Poor

The US budget should not be balanced on the backs of the unemployed, middle class, and poor.  Cut defense spending and the UNFUNDED wars that the oligarchy began to redistribute our wealth to the top 2 percent.  What kind of society do we want?  Do we want retired people to have no income, no healthcare, and no hope while Wall Street rapes us?  This is a wealthy nation, yet we have people who are hungry!  The chasm between the rich and middle-class is the largest that it has ever been in this country, and yet, our congress refuses to increase move the tax rates back to the levels under Clinton.  It's ridiculous that the conservatives can convince the populace that it's in their best interest to increase the wealth at the top in hopes of a "trickle down".   Just look at the eight years of the last administration, and you should understand that these unfair tax cuts did not create jobs, did not create prosperity, and did not improve the average American's standard of living.
