if you post that a middle class person should have their salary reduced --you should post your own
if you post an opinion by someone else arguing the same --you should post their salary.

if it's such a good idea, then you should be willing to work for the same amount and likewise other people proposing it.

2. What middle class?
Well, we'll probably always have a middle class. At some point in the near future, if the Republicans hold sufficient sway, we'll probably be able to call what's left of them the "health insurance class".

6. Middle class has gone the way of DODO bird
Capitalism and middle class are like water & oil...do not mix well.
With socialism all get poor with a sprinkling of rich ruling class...classic
examples are China & India before they discovered capitalism. Last year China
had the most NEW Billionaires!

10. Inflation adjusted dollars: middle class has networth 1/2 of what it was in 1960s
I'm sure somebody can post the stats. Many of us have seen them many times.

Some of us remember when a single income family could support kids and put aside money in savings.
