Paul Krugman writes in this week’s Nation about how even Business Week is reporting that fewer and fewer people are doing better than their parents did. Krugman really does an amazing job of writing about how the Bush Administration policies are doing away with the Horatio Alger dream of social mobility in favor of creating a caste system.

Krugman, especially in the Nation, writes in an inflammatory style, but he also is raising really important points. Bush’s vision of this country is different than most people’s views. This is not a man who is interested in the American Dream. Everything he’s done – from his economic policies to the bidding process on the Iraqi contracts to his non-policies on CEO white-collar crime – suggests this is a man making sure that he and his continue to amass wealth and power.
