But, unless I'm missing something major here, "mostly white, mostly middle America" is who is being hurt by the new work comp law, by disintegrating education, by disappearing social services. I mean the folks who can afford private schools, who can afford not to work if injured, who can afford private retirement schemes that allow them to spend their old age in comfort and relative health are what...the upper 5% of the population?
