Middle class, typically defined as from $30K and 100K mean household income.
I am sure they will seek the input of the real middle class, the ones paying along with the rich for the fiscal fiasco unfolding ..

Time is printing this?
The Obama Administration has no class.
At the roll-out event in Philadelphia last week , they didn’t take questions from the audience.
Their agenda is green jobs and doling out the funds in their greasy little hands, not asking the serfs how best they could be served.
It is not a long piece, I didn’t post any of it ,, but Yup, that’s what I thought too when I saw it..
This is the first time I have ever seen a specific range
denoting the term middle class which was 30K to 100K. maybe this is why during the Presidential campaign everytime Biden or Obama talked about who was getting a tax decrease the numbers changed.
>> It’s an admirable goal; with rising costs, stagnant wages and job cuts, a Pew Research study found that 78% of self-described middle class Americans have trouble maintaining their current standard of living.
We care about you, Middle Class peons! We are saddened — saddened — that you’re having trouble maintaining your current standard of living.
Therefore, the committee will get to work right away defining for you a much lower standard of living that you will have little trouble maintaining! (*cough* for a year or so).
And, face it — who better to decide what your standard of living shall be than we socialist elites? After all, as Americans, we’re all equally endowed, but some of us are better endowed than most of you. Besides, less for you is more for us. War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength.
You are dismissed. Return to your hovels now. Do not loiter on the streets.
You mean that these guys aren’t out there spreadin the wealth? What bad citizens. Unpatriotic.
Remember all the furor over McJobs? How all the jobs were the equivalent doing each others laundry? Now we’re supposed to get jobs blowing ground up newspaper into each others attics.
This is the 3rd critical piece of zero in Time TODAY.

Is someone at Time becoming lucid?
During the campaign, Obama repeated said the he was for the “middle class first” so what’s the problem here?
Although really I’ve never heard the term “middle class” referring to a specific income bracket until now.
“Is someone at Time becoming lucid?”
Naah.Just broke. Remember....some conservatives were liberals mugged by reality.....
True enough.
ROFLOL! Looks like someone might’ve had their kool-aid wear off?
Not only were the bosses nowhere near middle class, the audience is a special category and enjoys protected status as well. Organized Labor is a very small fraction of the entire labor force and is largely public employees (our so-called "public servants") and I don't know how an environmentalist could be middle-class because they all seem to have very low-paying social worker type jobs. It doesn't seem there was a normal "middle class" person in the entire hall.
Time still wants to be relevant after Obama makes them and the rest of the press into a laughingstock.
Obama is going to create lots more believers in federalism after responsible states (yes even blue states) get tired of getting it from behind.
