there's an inherent contradiction in your rant.
you are arguing that americans will be better off by lowering their standard of living and accelerating the income gap.
maybe you are right, in that we americans will have to accept a lower standard of living, like it or not, as corporations move manufacturing and other well-paying lower-middle-class jobs to the cheap-as-slaves labor of the third world.
just like we have to accept income inequality from now on.
this is the new american dream - to be allowed to work at walmart or mcdonalds, because you aren't allowed to get a cushy government job with real benefits.
and we only need a tiny class to run wall street and the american offices of multinationals.
