83. Huh? There is nothing odd, 'strange', or remotely conservative about this OP.
The caricature of a welfare queen was a caricature to depict poor African-American women as lavish con artists sucking off the system. This is a comment about someone's personal experience with formerly wealthy people (very possibly Republicans) who, because of the economy, have to work in jobs with people who they have always felt were beneath them.

Do you really think that in this economy there are no formerly, well-off, racists and classists who are forced to work with people they think they are above?
