that's the paradigm that seems to be forgotten in the rhetoric. this is and always shall be Class Warfare.
Theoretically, Government is supposed to represent the wishes of the people, ie. the workers who pay taxes in order for the people they voted in (government) to provide services for the benefit of the community (the people), Good schools, hospitals and medical services, fire and police, transportation and other services and infrastructure for the benefit of the community, that every person and family actually benefit from.
Unfortunately too often, (more often) the "elected" are actually pawns for the Corporation. The only interest the Corporation has is profit. People have no say in how Corporations shall be run, they do not hold elections by the people and for the people. If Corporations could, they would have workers that were not paid at all. But they do well enough with stagnate low wages here, and outsourced labor that are actually slaves.
For reasons I cannot understand, the good protesters and other progressives in this country fail to frame the issues in simple plain english, easy to understand and beautifully counters the bs from the Corporate shell groups (teabaggers).
