Manipulation of the upper class. They welcome and encourage hostility between the oppressed. Poor people resenting other poor people prevents them from standing together and overthrowing or even seriously questioning the oppressing elite.

Misinformation often leads to projecting problems onto scapegoats for the sake of convenience. For instance, when the GOP is in trouble, it uses the Welfare card. Remember Reagan and Ketchup? Interesting that the blame never goes higher than the less fortunate, mainly because that caste system "provides jobs". You can see this often in journalism and full-page ads that are paid for by corporations/lobbyists.

I have found the democrats to have mastered this deceptive practice whereby using those less fortunate as a shield for their ummm "agendas". Though has it done the vast majority of those less fortunate any favors? NO. Why? Because it isn't truly whats best for the common good. Therefore debunking their supposed support of DEMOCRACY. If it were, then everybody would have prospered to a point. But that isn't the case now is it?
