Who is the Vice President railing against? He has been serving under the very administration whose economic policies have contributed to a federal deficit of more than $18 trillion and the increase of American food stamp recipients to record levels. Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of veterans have a difficult time receiving getting health care while immigrants and foreign refugees are being encouraged to enter into this country to receive benefits and jobs not available to citizens.

Sounding very much like a candidate for president, today Vice President Joe Biden spoke at an AFL-CIO Labor Day event in Pittsburgh, Pa. "I'm mad, I'm angry," Biden thundered, attacking the U.S. economy as "devastating for workers."

Biden, who is openly considering running against Hillary Clinton in the Democratic primary, thanked "my friend" Richard Trumka, president of the AFL-CIO. "

"There wouldn't be a single basic right, from a 40-hour week to sick leave, there wouldn't a single basic right out there ... but for labor," Biden said. "You build the middle class. That's not an exaggeration."

The vice president also attacked growing inequality.

"Let me tell you something, man," Biden said. "The tax code's not fair. The wealthy aren't paying their fair share."

"Today 1 percent of Americans owns 40 percent of all wealth in America," the vice president said. "A level playing field doesn't exist."

"It's the way the tax code has been setup," Biden charged.
