Yes, but lets talk about why working class Republicans focus on the dust in the corner, like food stamp fraud, and not the fat elephant ****ting down the entire room, like the gifts to the donor class who spend billions in lobbying to get trillions in favors.
Just emerging from a year-long coma?
Working-class Republicans have been opposing the Republican establishment and are responsible for sending all their hand-picked corporate whores down in flames.
Now these same corporate whores are lining up to kiss Trump's ass because they finally realize they just got taken to the wood shed by working-class Republicans.
Meanwhile, the biggest corporate ***** of them all is certain to win the Democrat nomination and return the favors done for her by foreign governments and international corporations.
Huge speaking fees for her and Bill and donations to the Clinton money laundering operation will need to be repaid should she win the White House and that means America will have to pony up big time!
As for that dust in the corner, what you are really referring to is tax dollars being confiscated from working Americans to be given to non-workers in order to buy their votes.
This has the effect of using money taken from earners against our will to reduce our ability to resist a state that has effectively made us permanent tax slaves.
That's the entire idea. They do everything they can to force people out of all other areas and into the markets.
This is an artificial way to keep it inflated. That is not how it is supposed to work.
The markets are currently corrupt.
What I do is jump on the bandwagon. Stop bitching about the donor class and join them.
QE has been going on a long time. I can probably retire at 60 if I wish thanks to QE. In that way it has benefitted me more than the ultrarich whose lifestyle is little different regardless if we have QE or not.
Assuming that what you say is true, and I don't know if it is, do you get the concept that when the government supports business it is helping the working class?

2008 all over again?

As I've pointed out many times. People love the government's welfare programs when it benefits them but ***** when it benefits others.
The donor class still pays the majority of the taxes which allows the lowest 40% of earners all that free stuff. It allows our poor to live a lifestyle far above what is considered poor in other countries.
Your premise is flawed.
A near-zero fed funds rate makes our money worth less and less all the time.
If you have your wealth parked in commodities, this is a good thing.
If you work for a living, this is a bad thing.
Then there are people who live off the dole and care less about the plight of working Americans or the taxes working Americans pay.
The number of working Americans is shrinking which means their ability to stave off the final liquidation of the United States is constantly being diminished.

Or we start turning off the free-stuff spigot.
Start with illegals and move on up the list. Don't work and are getting a handout? Report for work at X hiring hall. Working and paying your way? Here's a voucher for a person at a hiring hall for Y hours.
