I feel sometimes that there's this sense that people are poor because they want to be, or they're working-class because they want to be or because they don't work hard enough. I feel like there's this demonization of working people in general, but specifically definitely labor union members.

I am specifically concerned about the idea that the legislative process is one that gets characterized the way it is as the 'fiscal cliff.'
