Why only half?

If you don’t have overseas bank accounts, like a Limbaugh or Levin might, and the dollar pulls a Zimbabwe or 1920’s Germany, then you are wiped out completely. Your wealth, whether you had a little or a lot... POOF! Instant Equality!!

...nearly half of U.S. households (132.1 million people) don't have enough savings to weather emergencies, or finance long-term needs like college tuition, health care and housing.

If they did, Obama would classify them as "rich" and take it away from them anyway.

All money rightfully belongs to government.

More than one-quarter of households earning $55,465-$90,000 annually have less than three months of savings.

I bet they have lot's of nice toys though.

Most people spend what they earn. I see it every day. Whether you earn $1,000 per month or $10,000.

At the end of the month... they’re broke.

On the other hand, I’ve seen families do quite well on “minimum wage”.

Its all about priorities.

From the article: “We’re not just talking about people who living people the poverty line, either.”

What do you suppose this means? Does no one edit or proofread any longer?

Obama’s ruinous Marxist economic policies at work.

Or is it STILL Bush’s fault...
