      There is no reason to be ashamed or embarrassed. Mocking lower incomes is exactly how those who benefit from + promote wealth inequality the most keep everyday people silent about 1 of the worst threats to American society: that the rich are getting richer and the poor, poorer.https://twitter.com/Blavity/status/1060943538509307904 …

      40% of ALL Americans currently struggle to pay for one basic need like food or rent. As much as @FoxNews likes to mock the working-class, the real scandal is that at the wealthiest point in our history, we are at one of our most unequal. Most Americans are barely scraping by.

          I'm homeless because of how expensive the DC area is! I'd rather live in my car than pay rent again. Next place I live in I want to own, but not around DC. We need more affordable housing.

          Our FOUNDING FATHERS cringed at the idea that public offices would only be held by the rich. We can't vote against oligarchs and then act shocked when elected officials from lower socio-economic backgrounds can't afford to live in a city as expensive as DC.

          I am so tired of this argument. Where are the better jobs? Who’s getting them? Please tell me because it seems no matter how hard I work, I’m stuck. And don’t tell me I’m not trying hard enough. We are at the mercy of corporate America.

          Please cite your statistics and historical data for comparison instead of generalities. Bumper stickers don't help. Odd, too, that typically the most expensive places in the country to live are continually represented by @thedemocrats.
