So if more people were “middle income” rather than “upper income”, we’d somehow be better off?
Spot-on..!
“On another FR thread, FReepers would be all over you like white on rice.. Just sayin’.”
Who cares?
My original post was pertinent to the erosion of the middle class. What do public schools have to do with that?
.
Marxism is dedicated to eliminating the Middle Class (Bourgeoisie). Enter our Democratic Socialist President Barack Hussein Obama. All he has done has worked to achieve this objective; as seen in our economy today.
Now we see a bewilderment of both Democrat and Republican parties. He is called Donald Trump.
What! Who got the licence number of that truck?
Yes; the Middle Class has been all but destroyed; and those folks are mad as hell and will be voting for Trump. GOP; eat your heart out. You have now lost your base, and deservably so. They have become a movement looking for a name.
Something IS moving out there, and the B-— S-— of the past will no longer suffice. If they wish to know why Donald Trump is blowing them away, the GOP wise men simply need to know what they don’t have the guts to say!
We are now in the lower twenty.
We get by.
But things get tight at times.
Has your salary gone up 47% since 1996? Mine hasn't.
And, btw, that’s using the official gov’t inflation rate, so it all depends on how much you trust that annual number...
Why did Conservatives allow the left to brand their economics incorrectly as ‘Trickle down’? That manner is pure projection of the leftist methodology. All money goes to the top (government) then redistributed to the lowly dumb masses.
According to the article, I am in the upper class due to my income.
This will come as big news for my wife. I’m going to take her to Olive Garden and tell her she can stop cutting coupons.

Oh. So hows the weather in Israel?
It goes beyond Obama, but you pretty much hit the ten ring with that and I agree with most of it.
They also extend the ‘middle’ class up to $126K. That may be accurate in urban areas, but such a family would be rich out in the boondocks. So maybe there are more upper-class and fewer middle-class households than they suppose.
Well I am in New Mexico today. ( I work for an Israeli military contractor and train US personnel.)
There ya go, we outsource everything.
I used to shock my elders by being utterly against ‘free’ trade since I was in high school. And I mean TOTALLY against it; tarrifs on Chinese slave-goods? yes please and thank you! Bans on products from nations that are hostile to us? Duh yes! Effective* economic sanctions? When do we get started?
Maybe because I’m a tad smarter than average or my parents raised me really well, but I saw it and other artifacts of the globalist movement for the vampiric scams that they were almost from the time I became politically aware.
*short of the ones on South Africa in support of the black terrorist groups, the world has not seen any of these on any real scale since WW2. I don’t count Cuba because it is a friendless crudhole with no allies, a total non-entity if it weren’t for tourism.
those people must be govt double and triple dippers.....they make me sick...
here in the state of Washington, you can't even park in a state gravel pit without having a special sticker on your car that you pay extra for...
look at the property taxes and the SS taxes and Medicare taxes on top of that, and then the income tax...
to be a citizen is a huge cost and it eats up most peoples income....
the illegals....not so much...
Public schools dumb people down.. Public schools were designed to keep the little people in their places.
Public schools were designed to keep power in the hands of certain people. The backers of public schools didn’t want anyone to truly threaten their power.
History is your friend. Get to know him.
(the sting of rebuke is truth)
Well, we make the helmets and electronics. You make the planes.
If it makes you feel better, unlike most immigrants, I actually file and pay my taxes.
