Goodby America - the holocaust of the poor and middle class in America

I recall a Jewish proverb or story, whatever you call it:

It basically references a Jewish man during the holocaust. When Nazi soldiers came to the houses of his neighbors to remove them, he just watched as each family was removed one at a time. No one ever protested until he himself looked around and realized he had no way to rebel anymore as he was all alone. Then they came for him.

I look around at all the people from India replacing Americans in law, medicine and science. I cant help but get a feeling like what the last Jew felt like.

Difference is, I am screaming and yelling, and no one listens.

I feel like this is the holocaust of the poor and middle class in America.
