Not as good as squeezing the real upper class.

Now just make this the official policy of the democratic party instead of the unofficial policy, and let people vote on whether they support it.

As opposed to the unofficial policy of conservatives to cut taxes for the rich and 'pay for it' by putting the nation (and hence, all of us) deeper in debt? Please. If anything the democratic party seems to be more 'fiscally conservative', because at least they're not afraid to raise taxes to pay for their spending.

This is what both parties have been doing for decades with no exceptions. It's time to stop playing tribal games.

Yeah, I think the last time we really saw fiscal conservatives in office was the 90's.

once we have created an underclass of depth grovelers we will finally have good weather

Oh yes, of course, the upper middle class are the ones who use a plane to travel 40 miles.
