Can only read the right side of the article because of the LA Times floating side bar.

A world in which there are only pampered elites and expendable peons.

Exactly what our would-be masters want.

America has been in a Depression since 2008.

This article basically says that the problem is that the middle class has been defined by demographics rather than by income.

Well, duh.

By demographics alone, one can only make broad generalizations about income, and income is the only measure of class that makes any sense.

Other things said in that article go completely off base. For instance, at the end, it talks about the importance of higher education, and mentions “policy-makers, who have been complacently watching public higher education get ruthlessly squeezed by state governments and private higher ed priced out of the reach of the middle class.” What about the role of policy-makers who, by their very actions to supposedly make college more affordable, have pushed tuitions ever higher?

Yeah....I have ZERO respect for those that used the ‘green shoots’ talking points. Mara Liasson was one of them.
