But beyond the hysteria of phantom death panels, where is the abomination? Show me the provisions that will hurt consumers, because if you think a $110 billion a year tax break for working-class Americans to buy private health insurance is a government takeover, I welcome the debate.
Jim McDermott
For students today, only 10 percent of children from working-class families graduate from college by the age of 24 as compared to 58 percent of upper-middle-class and wealthy families.
Patrick J. Kennedy
Growing up in a particular neighborhood, growing up in a working-class family, not having much money, all of those things fire you and can give you an edge, can give you an anger.
Gary Oldman
I came from a real working-class show business family.
Sally Field
I can't talk fellowship to you who are gathered here. Too much blood has been spilled. I know from my experience it is up to the working people to save themselves. The only way they can save themselves is by a strong working-class movement.
Rose Schneiderman
I think the reason working-class people don't write books is because they are encouraged to believe that only certain people are permitted to write books.
Len Deighton
I was born and raised in a suburb of Paris by a working-class family.
Olivier Martinez
I'm a working-class kid from a blue-collar New England family.
R. A. Salvatore
My father kept his distance from working-class American blacks.
Constance Baker Motley
My sympathies have always been for working-class people.
Christa McAuliffe
Sharpe is my favorite role of all that I've played. He's a very complex character. He knows that he's a good soldier, but he will always have to fight the prejudice of aristocratic officers because of his rough working-class upbringing. On the battlefield, he's full of confidence - but off it, he is unsure, a bit shy and ill at ease.
Sean Bean
The best real-estate investments with the highest yields are in working-class neighborhoods, because fancy properties are overpriced.
Jane Bryant Quinn
These were all middle-class kids from literary backgrounds, joining this sort of train going by, this pop train, jumping on. Whereas the rest of the rock scene, you'll find that there's mostly working-class people.
Kevin Ayers
This led me to understand that trade unionism, the instrument of working-class liberation and of social change could, and indeed should, be also an instrument of industrial progress.
Leon Jouhaux
Working-class Americans have waited too long, close to a decade in fact, for an increase in the minimum wage. This has been the second longest period without a pay raise since the Federal minimum wage law was first enacted in 1938.
