National Review

I was anxious to read a recent article--I could not find it online--from National Review referring to white male blue collar workers as a poor, unfortunate class bitter and alienated, and orienting to Trump and Cruz out of anger and desperation. This reporter suggested terminating this class by making them all educated and white collar.

As a working man, I resent any rich elitists feeling sorry for white males that work with their hands.

Millions of white men lead rich, fulfilling, financially satisfying and and intellectually stimulating work lives as blue collar workers. The work is fun and sufficient.

We need more people to work with their hands as well as their heads. To work and be skilled with one hands makes one oriented to reality and practicality, and that moderating influence lends itself readily to temperate common sense and an aversion to coercive, or extreme pressure on others to conform to one's utopian ambitions.
