You expressed your opinion well -- until you got to the end.
What do you mean by the "proper" middle class?
Thomas Sowell said a very wise thing.
"If by “fair,” you mean everyone having the same odds for achieving success, then life has never been anywhere close to being fair, at any place or time."
Fair and unfair have been in debate for a long time, and no body gets to the conclusion on what is fair what is not fair.
Once it was the African Americans who were treated unfairly because of their colour, today many interest groups have formed fighting for something that they think it is unfair to them.
Should the government help ensure fairness? That is a hard question because there was a time when the African Americans made the government ratify the 13 and 14 amendment and then there were the whites who fought against affirmative action after that. So more or less no ones is ever happy and nothing really is very fair.
Passing a law for people to be fair to people can be very disputable, because if done so in the end of the day one of the party's always upset
Should the government treat people fairly?
Hmm well yes they should, as long as them being Fair does not contradict with the constitution. However I still think some equality laws like the New Deal which consists of welfare to everyone in need has really disrupted the class system. This may be harsh but it is not fair on the people who work for their leisure in contrast to people who enjoy life because their food and school is being taken care of. To me the New Deal maybe fair to other people but it was surely not fair to the proper middle class.
Does this make sense?

Lots of people from the lower class are today living like middle classes because of welfare, how is that fair to the people who have actually worked hard to get there?
Classes?
If a person has the income to live like the "middle class," they certainly aren't getting their money from welfare.

I do not know why but when I click on the first name whatever comes up I just go ahead with it.
And hmm you are right, but FDRs New deal was about making sure everyone has enough.
But to me it seems like welfare is just not "FAIR" anymore.
