These are part of the underclass - what used to be called the 'working class' - until all the jobs went west. And they are sick of being frozen out of the American dream. While effete elites such as yourself can earn a nice living merely writing a load of irrelevant claptrap. "Maybe you get a blister on your little finger . . ."
