Are they?! What is your definition of 'working class'?
Firespirit · 26-30, M
@GypsyMiss The people in manual-labor occupations and industrial work. Also people without collage degrees

The left traditionally favours that. The right protects the interests of the upper/wealthier classes

@GypsyMiss Traditionally yes but today's left is not traditionalist the left of the past were quite like that. but since the left changed in the 70s The working class has suffered

@Firespirit it's not jut the working class. everyone has suffered. and it's not a left or right problem. its a 1%er problem. if you're in that 99% your screwed. and in reality the right has always curte the rich white men. not the left. it all started with reaganomics and the idea that giving money to the rich will trickle own to the rest of us. it's a great idea but it does not work. the right love that idea. the left does not.
