Here are the “classes” as I see them in America. First, we have the Ruling Class. Next, there is the Provider Class, and lastly the Taker Class. There is a bit of overlap because there are takers as part of the ruling class, but more on that later.
First and foremost, there is no actual “class warfare” between the rich (or haves) and the poor (or have nots). That is a political fiction for the sole purpose of trying to create friction and keep the spotlight off the real warfare. America is a unique phenomenon on the planet earth. The poorest of the poor have the opportunity to become the richest of the rich. In 2025, there are literally millions of examples of that reality. In fact, the opposite is also true. There are former millionaires who are living in their cars. This is not where the warfare lies.
I’ll first begin by defining each of these classes to establish some common ground.
The ruling class is made up of career professional politicians with no regard to political party. Part of the ruling class are, the people that are corrupting (buying) elected officials and the corruptocrats of the Deep State bureaucracies. Corruption is funded by both domestic and foreign sources.
The provider class is made up of the only 60% of the Americans who are actually taxpayers. They are the official Americans who provide funding for all of America’s expenses.
The taker class is made up of American citizens who pay no income tax and the illegal foreigners who are leeches being supported by taxpayer-funded programs. The overlap I previously noted are those in the ruling class elected officials, who mysteriously become millionaires on their less than $200,000 a year government salaries.
When all takers are accounted for, there are probably more takers than there are providers. That is the real economically unsustainable reality.
Warfare in America is primarily between the ruling class against everyone else. However, the worst of it is between the ruling class and the provider class. When there are more people riding in the cart than pulling the cart, something has got to give at some point.
"Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." ~ John Adams
Many of the Founding Fathers emphasized the reality that the ultimate success of the American republic depended on moral and virtuous people in government. They also pointed out that people are not as honest as most people assume. But most important, they hammered on the fact that the success of the republic depended on respect of the United States Constitution while always remembering to respect God and the Christian values on which the Constitution is based. God and the biblical values are the foundation of 250 years of America’s success.
Never forget, it was about 65 years ago when the communists, masquerading as Democrats, began the movement to eliminate the Judeo-Christian God from the public square. Here we are today and Islam is considered acceptable in public schools, but the American flag and Christianity are no longer acceptable in public schools. Something is seriously wrong with this picture.
America must return to our national roots and reinforce the doctrine established by our Founding Fathers which resulted in the creation of the most desirable place on the planet, a place where everyone would like to live. Multiculturalism is a death sentence for traditional American assimilation that has been the key to success for America, so far. Multiculturalism is failing all over the world, and in spite of that, this is where America’s ruling class is trying to take us. America’s ruling class has been bought off by the globalists who wish to insert themselves as rulers of the whole world. That is the warfare the American provider class must fight.
"Dependence leads to subservience." ~ Thomas Jefferson
Jefferson’s quote identifies one of America’s major problems. Too many Americans are dependent on unearned government funding, so much so that they refuse to even look for work. So the takers in the ruling class Legislative Branch along with a complicit Executive Branch, take taxes from the provider class to support the leeches of the low-end taker class. Guess how those subservient takers vote?
The real class warfare must be fought on several fronts.
The ruling class must be eliminated and elected service to the county must be a time-limited duty, not a life-long career.
The majority of the taker class must also be eliminated. Government help must be relegated to short term assistance, not a permanent life-style.
The traditional values the Founding Fathers gave us must be reestablished and that means the values of the Judeo-Christian God and biblical standards.
American culture, language, and borders must be enforced. That mean Congress has to codify President Trump’s E.O. declaration that English is the official language of America. In addition, Congress needs to codify the requirement that all immigrants must assimilate into the American culture. People are free to honor their culture, but may not try to live by their cultural values, if those are values that conflict with the Constitution and laws, if they wish to remain in America. The very key to America’s success is assimilation, not multinationalism, which is destroying western European cultures as you read this.
America has many enemies, both internal and external. The external enemies are being handled by President Trump and his MAGA army. The MAGA army is also handling the external enemies who have established a beachhead within the confines of America’s borders.
But, sadly, the job is much bigger than that if America is to remain viable democratic republic. That is where We the People have to do our work. We the People of the provider class must combat the hate that is so pervasive in the ruling class and the taker class. Hate can destroy any civilization if allowed to progress into violent action. The existential threat to American society is the self-appointed ruling class, they are the enemy within. We the People must pick up the task of defeating that enemy within.
I will address, in more detail, potential solutions We the People must implement in the real class warfare.

In many of these positions I repeatedly took an oath to defend the United States Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.
