Letter to the editor:

Working class made wealthy rich

It is a mad, mad, mad world where the bad guys are the conquering heroes and the good guys are nothing more than conniving socialists.

The letter “A look at what left voters dissatisfied” (Nov. 20) ought to be illuminating to those working-class Republicans still groping the darkness of the GOP’s lies via speeches and multimillion-dollar propaganda machines.

There is nothing complicated about it. Simply stated: The rich, ultra rich and their minions —such as Charles Krauthammer, Rich Lowry, Sherman Fredrick and countless others — have only one purpose: Bring feudalism back to the United States.

Those working-class Republicans ought to ask themselves, “Who made my corporate bosses rich?”

And the answer is: You did.

President Barack Obama was correct that you, the rich, didn’t build it. With all their business savvy and organizational acumen, multibillionaires such as Steve Wynn and Sheldon Adelson would have monetarily collapsed without the multifarious workers who built their empires.

Minimum wages, forget about it. Let your boss dictate how much you are worth.

And the question to the power elite: How much is enough?
