Hahaha, looks like somebody read one too many Ayn Rand novels. The productive people are the working class. The upper classes produce nothing, and take everything. I doubt no more than 10% of the upper classes know how to even cook their own meals, let alone fix their own cars, build their own houses, mow their own lawns, raise their own kids. Theyre the idle rich. Send them to an island full of resources and no one to wait on them hand and foot and theyll all die of starvation. Theyre useless parasites, getting rich off the back of the American and third-world workers. They have literally ZERO life skills that dont involve financial crime and stock market manipulations. See how far that gets you in Costa Rica lol.

Since 1928, only Dwight Eisenhower and George W. Bush have won the presidency while capturing both houses of Congress for the GOP.

In his 49-state landslide, Richard Nixon failed to take either House. In his two landslides, Ronald Reagan won back only the Senate. Yet Mitt Romney is even money to pull off the hat trick.
With this hopeful prospect, why the near despair among so many Republicans about the long term?
In his New York Times report, "In California, GOP Fights Steep Decline," Adam Nagourney delves into the reasons.

In the Golden Land, a state...
