This comment section is restoring some of my faith in humanity. Racial warfare is not productive, but class warfare IS. It's the elites sitting at the top versus everyone else. The Framers wanted to avoid establishing a monarchy so there was no nobility, and so everyone in society can be viewed as equals. What they neglected was the influence wealth can create, for the person who attains it, for those who inherit it, and whoever might have connections with that individual. And it doesn't help that lobbying is also legal, and hence so is bribery and corruption. So even the only political power we may have --- who we elect as our Representative, our Senator, or our President --- may not ultimately mean anything. It's disgraceful. But it's the truth. We can hide from it, but we can't escape it. All we can do is try to reform it from within, by lending our support to those who aren't corrupt or bought-off by this or that industry, and hope that we get enough of them to make a real difference. What their social policies happen to be (i.e. whether they're in favor of gay marriage or not) is of little consequence by comparison. Will they fight for ordinary working people like us, or are they bought and owned by Shell Incorporated? Let your ballots reflect the answer. As George Carlin once said, "It's a big club . . . And you ain't in it."
