What about the 95 million Americans who aren’t getting a paycheck?

Well, at least of few of us are doing OK. I meet with a bunch of buddies on Friday, we’re all in our early 60s and living well.

I can’t speak for the other 94 million, however....

Most are on some type of means tested govt. assistance (welfare) or Soc. Sec. or Fed/State govt. retirement etc.

Good point. The reason wealth is falling is because fewer people are working, despite the fudged unemployment numbers. After all, if you drop to Social Security Disability or take Social Security retirement early because you can’t find a job, you end up draining your savings and being unable to replenish it.
