America's Blond Eminenceand at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as
Another Timothy Pickering...
: "I’m Kind Of Far Removed" From The Struggles Of The Middle Class "Because The Life I’ve Lived And The Economic, You Know, Fortunes That My Husband And I Now Enjoy."*
"And I am not taking a position on any policy, but I do think there is a growing sense of anxiety and even anger in the country over the feeling that the game is rigged. And I never had that feeling when I was growing up. Never. I mean, were there really rich people, of course there were. My father loved to complain about big business and big government, but we had a solid middle class upbringing. We had good public schools. We had accessible health care. We had our little, you know, one-family house that, you know, he saved up his money, didn’t believe in mortgages. So I lived that. And now, obviously, I’m kind of far removed because the life I’ve lived and the economic, you know, fortunes that my husband and I now enjoy, but I haven’t forgotten it."
