Reshuffle the deck?_其他_趣味英语-查字典英语网

Reshuffle the deck?

That is no accident. Tax policies, for example, favor the rich. While the middle class working people pay their taxes according to law, the rich are able to enjoy various loopholes in the system to pay less taxes. As a result, the middle class often pay more taxes in proportion to their income than the rich.

That, as an example, is not right. Hillary wants to change it – by reshuffling the deck.

But that is merely one example. There are lots of instances where the rich are favored while the rest of the population find themselves in a disadvantaged position.

In other words, and to use another poker expression, the middle class simply find the cards stacked against them every direction they look.

Let’s hope Hillary can do it.

First, let’s hope she wins. As first female to run for President, she herself represents a new deal, symbolically at the very least.

Let’s hope she can pull it off and come through for the middle class – plus everyone else. The other possibility, or more likely probability, is, of course, that Hillary wins and reshuffles the White House, etc, and yet everything remains the same.

Ah well, let’s read other media examples in which people shuffle or reshuffle the deck:

1. Obama and senior aides set a high bar even higher in recent days. The same president who widened America’s drone war, ordered the raid that killed Osama bin Laden in Pakistan and led NATO into the conflict in Libya without congressional authorization isn’t likely to go to war against strongman Bashar Assad anytime soon.
