If I had a dollar for everytime I've heard some dipstick claim the middle class is disappearing I wouldn't be in the middle class anymore.
This line has been paranoid idiocy for 40 years, it's a fallback column for doomcriers that can't think of anything else this month.

If you notice ---the argument on this thread isn't about it going away or not ---many people think the middle class isn't needed at all. They're fine with having no middle class, they believe the venture capitalists can just keep things going.

Does that mean that the European "middle-class" lives in poverty? In many of the major economies of Europe, the average person makes $8-10k less than the average American. I think it is much ado about nothing. As long as the inflation adjusted average increases (no matter how slowly), we're doing okay and a hell of a lot better than most other industrialized nations.
