The Democratic party has lost the working class

What a colossal failure in marketing that is. Of the two parties, the Democrats do far more for the working class than the Republicans. The Democrats failure to attract the party that they directly benefit leads to questions about their ability in other areas. The Republicans have long been the party for the benefit of the rich.

The article also states that they want to cut liberal arts programs due to budgetary issues. The price of college tuition is 134-600% more than it was 20 years ago. Something is seriously wrong if they still can't pull a profit on paper.
