Mention socialism and you have to talk class warfare . Indeed , the mere allusion to the notion of economic inequality in America nowadays prompts the immediate suspicion and accusation that you are trying to incite class warfare .
A recent political cartoon portraying president Obama driving a military tank labeled "class warfare" in response to his timid and docile suggestions and efforts to return the tax rates for the rich and super rich to the very acceptable and favorable levels in place before the Bush tax cuts turned them from lavish to obscene .
It is a sign of the times , our times , when a centrist and a moderately conservative like Mr. Obama is labeled a socialist , a leftist , and is constantly accused of inflaming class war .
The obvious tactic , in all it's ugly clarity , of suggesting and advocating that taxing the rich is going to destroy the economical machine and stop the creation of jobs is a diabolical black-mail of the country and it's people , for the pure and simple selfish benefit of the rich and the super rich individuals and corporations , all represented by politicians , lobbies , and influential pressure groups , who are all at the core of this game and are part of the privileged class .
Mr. Obama mentioned couple days ago in a speech in a Pennsylvania factory that all Americans should get involved in this important issue , that could establish the better path for our future , and the nation's prosperity and humanity .
My response to the grave issue of taxing the rich , and extending the tax cuts to the middle classes and the underprivileged , thanks for your attention and salamat.
