They are teaching in all the schools (k-12 and college) that capitalism just transfers money from the poor to the rich, and that capitalism must be turned into socialism so that jobs can be created inset of making rick richer.
The destruction of the middle class is a part of this strategy and the progressive claim this is a result of big business and Republicans. The truth is it is a result of control control of the markets from those in power i.e. the progressives that are in both parties.
Since the progressives are boomers (not all but most) they are in all the positions of power by simple demographics. The boomers were born between 1944 and 1966 (my definition) which makes the oldest 70 and the youngest 48 which means they run the country and will for another ten years plus or minus!
