What is the exact date when the rich stopped waging class warfare against the poor?

We know when the Civil war and World War II ended, but has the rich stopped its class warfare against the poor yet?

Update:

When the Republicans refuse to raise the minimum wage on behalf of the rich, it is not class warfare?

Update 2:

Is human slavery class warfare or is it the natural order of things?

    The rich haven't stopped their war against the poor and they don't intend to stop any time soon.

    Witness the cuts to the snap program. And the Republicans refusal to extend unemployment benefits

    in states where they're desperately needed. The only way the rich will stop is if the rest of the country

    finally has enough of their power grab.

    It never stopped. Since the beginning of civilization humans have held others down and warred against the poor. You need peasants in order to have kings. The rich don't want equality because they wouldn't be rich anymore or above.

    No, they haven't even taken a breather. Actually, the rich have taken it to a new level by enlisting ignorant middle class folks, who are just a hair's breath away from poverty them selves, to put down the poor too. You can see those foolish middle income folks right here on YA politics. They belittle the poor as the rich do, as lazy and undeserving of any assistance.

  • If you include the rich as the culprit in waging economic war on the poor and ""the middle class"" (I would add) then you must blame the politicians for being in league with them to aid them. Without politicians to aid them they would have to play on an even playing field.

    Class Warfare is the Marxist Principle that pursues creating Class Envy which can set up a violet response where the poor will pick up tools and torches and murder the upper class.

    Then they destroy all that was created and no one has Anything.

    Yep, I bet you just Love Marx.

    But you have the Class Warfare issue backwards.

    they didn't, they just convinced some of the poor to do the fighting for them. It never ceases to amaze me that so many people vote for a party which only really represents the interests of the 1% at the expense of everybody else.

    It never started. It is a fiction. There have always been owners and workers. That is the way of the world.
