You know it seems like if you like in Socialism or a
Capitalism world the lower and some of the middle
class is more or less screwed.  Either you are being
exploited in the Socialism government or you are being
exploited in the Capitalism group by the wealthy.  One
way or another it seems that the labor class will
continue to be exploited for there labor power in the
hopes that one day they will be the ones with power to
exploits others.
