Democrats could care less about the middle class-they have done nothing to help the middle class in decades. Ask yourself how many middle class people can not afford health insurance since the rates exploded due to the ACA?


Unions members don't need the ACA because the unions give them health insurance. Democrats have always looked out for the middle class. Please tell me how republicans have looked out for the middle class. What have they done for them. If all the middle class worked for unions then we wouldn't have the problem with health insurance because unions make sure they all had health insurance.

Republicans try to encourage ECONOMIC GROWTH which creates jobs for middle income earners. We don't have CLASSES here.

Republicans don't care for the middle class. Why do you think they are so against unions.

Because unions often destroy companies, and then ALL the jobs go away. Open your mind.

You keep spouting the same Media Matters talking points. It's getting kinda boring, hun. I hope they give you a new script for 2018.

No unions are trying to help the middle class while republicans are trying to destroy them. Are you a union member. How is your health insurance. Our prescriptions cost $2. How much do your prescriptions cost

Ok, so I will ask you the same question. How much do you pay for health insurance out or you pay check.

Many of the middle class are union members and have health care.

And a great deal more are not union members. Only 6.7% of workers in private industries are union members. And that number is declining every year. And a great many of those non-union workers also have health insurance from their employer. (I don't know that unions EVER provide health insurance, it is generally the business that does). Many of those employers are being forced to charge employees for part of their insurance-in a large part due to the burden of the Obamacare disaster and it's increase of premiums.

Unions care about the middle class. Again, republicans hate unions because you guys care more about the rich.
