Blue-Collar Middle-Class is a thing of the past.

It's starting to look like that ---too bad because the middle class is what made the US strong. We'll become like all third world countries where some have most of the money and the majority work for dirt just like it is in Mexico. At least if you get to the elite class you have all the servants you could want that way.

That's because the children and grnadchildren of those unionized factory workers went to college and are now (for the most part) making a good living in the white collar world. Think about it: are there any poor Italian or Polish Americans anymore? Are there any "ghetto" enclaves made up of the children of blue collar workers?
