I think the Democratic strategy of creating an 'assisted living' environment for working class and lower middle class Americans is very clever.

Once people get used to the idea that a small percentage of 'rich people' will effectively pay for them to have a higher standard of living due to various Government programs, it will be very difficult for the Republicans to ever win those people back.

We've entered an era of "Don't I get a stimulus check this year?" And if people are not smart enough to realize that the accumulation of personal wealth should be based on a combination of hard work and a decent intellect, instead of looking for others to pay their way, then Socialism is not far away.

The Obama philosophy: From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.......Shame Karl Marx said it first.
