rich dont see Joe

McCain says he isnt worried about what some old guy did forty years ago- why wont his people let it go? the rich are concerned about niceties- a new boat or car, a new pool or addition to their house. Joe Lunchbucket is worried about the NECESSITIES of life- food on the table, having a job, keeping the lights on, avoiding foreclosure on his house, etc. The rich dont seem to see the difference. One example of this might be the new gym- a nicety but certainly NOT a necessity, and an unnecessary additional economic burden on Joe in these times of economic hardship. The rich just dont seem to GET IT- they have theirs and can afford the niceties, why cant the middle-class guy do the same? Joe is too concerned about providing food on the table and the other necessities of life to worry about the niceties.
