'For one, our first-world peers have not witnessed anything remotely akin to the Republican Party’s wholesale evisceration of the American middle class. '
'But the protests are merely a symptom of a deeper and far more insidious ideological sickness plaguing America. '
'The middle class boomed; education was affordable and robust union membership put social mobility within reach for anyone willing to work hard. '
'While it may be easy to dismiss these protests as a fringe movement, they expose a dark truth: Unlike other industrialized countries, America’s middle class has been decimated over the last forty years. '
'Indeed, by some measures, citizens in these countries enjoy far more social and economic freedom than Americans do. '
