I think the middle class in the United States is being systematically destroyed, and nobody is doing much of anything to stop it. Their incomes are shrinking, their share of the income pie is at an all-time low, their jobs are being sent overseas, debt burdens have soared to unprecedented heights and millions of formerly middle class Americans have fallen into poverty.
That is why food stamp enrollment top 45 million 3 years in a row.
My heart goes out to those who haves to live paycheck to paycheck. If they lose their current job, they will fall into poverty.
The ONLY reason my ex is still doing pretty darn good is because he saved up and made some good investment decisions. (He started saving and investment 10+ years ago.)
Yes and I believe it's being deliberately done by the powers that be. Our politicians on both sides of the aisle, and their corporate cronies.

If it's too hard for poor folk to get a voter ID how in the hell can they apply for jobs and go to work 5 days a week. And you claim the problem is lack of opportunity. Obviously when opportunity hits them in the face it's too hard for them to take it.
As I wait for an answer I ask another, Democrats claiming it's racist to require a voting ID would make the NAACP racist. They NAACP requires an ID to attend an NAACP conference.

Telling the world I'm incapable would be insulting. Then turn around and say Hey.. I'm equal to everyone else "and can do what everyone else can do".
That's my point. Democrats are insulting blacks but since it's democrats doing the insulting they don't see it.
U.S. politics control the U.S. military. The U.S. military is the center piece of all geopolitics (cough oil cough). We live in a world dependent on oil, which we control through our military. Thus, our politicians control a lot of the globe.
