I'm not quite sure where the term "middle class" came from. I can never remember using it in any conversations I've ever had. In fact, the only time I hear the phrase is when some politician is speaking. From the context of the speech, I am quit

Middle-class money earned by middle-class people working at middle-class
jobs goes to Washington DC to be used by "middle-classist" politicians 
for everything but middle-class concerns. When will the insanity stop? 

In the Old Testament, the Jewish law required that every seventh year be
a year of rest. Although I am not Jewish, I think there is something to 
be said for this kind of  rest. I propose that the middle-class be 
given its due sabbatical. 

How many years have we've been working and then giving our money to
Washington DC? We deserve a rest. If these "middle-classist" 
politicians look so kindly towards the middle-class, why not give all 
of us middle-class people a sabbatical where we do not pay any taxes. 
We certainly will work, but all the money we would normally send to 
Washington DC, we put in our own pocket. 

Now, that's change I can believe in. 

In fact, I have biblical authority for all of this. Authority from the
mouth of Jesus himself. "And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to 
Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are 
God's. And they marveled at him" (Mark 12:17 KJV). 

Not all those “middle-classist” politicians in Washington give a second
thought to the middle-class. I think it is about time we gave them as 
much thought. 

I believe the primary problem in America is that we no longer know what
belongs to Caesar what belongs to God. If we can ever figure that out 
again, "happy days are here again."
