While I am concerned for the poor because it's the right thing to do and if left to their own, I believe trouble is brewing in America, I also think the middle class is getting screwed. Production in this country has been at or nearest it's highest level, yet incomes have not kept pace w/this. I'm talking about middle class (and poor's) wages. More proof that the trickle down theory is just that. It's drips and drabs compared to what the managers and exceutives are being paid. So much attention is paid to the poor when it's the rich and well to do that slowly squeezing the lifeblood out of the middle class. Their throwing out the misdirection play, don't buy into it, ignore it. They are slowly stealing our dreams. Laugh if you want, it's been happening under our noses. Jobs are being eliminated or moved overseas and H-1B visas are being used to take over American jobs. We have many qualified graduates right here in this country but it is cheaper to hire the H-1B. If you watch the specials on TV OR do research, you will see that many of these so called high tech jobs are a farce. They are entry level positions. The middle class is definitely being eliminated, there should be no mistaking that. We all could go on and on. I know I'm beating a dead horse. My knuckles may be swollen, but I feel a little better. I concur w/your observations Peace 1,2,3
Gary, if your theories are right why did it take WW2 to bail out the failed policies of the tyrant known as FDR? Oh and how come it was Reaganâs policies, even followed by Clinton that led to the greatest economic boom of all time?
Time will tell, but my kids are going to have it a lot harder than I did. I came of age during the Reagan years, my father was unemployed because of Jimmy Carter yet I managed to be successful and raise a family, buy a house. Why? I worked hard and stayed out of debt. In a little under 4 years my house will be paid off and I won't even be 50. Why? Because I lived within my means and took responsibility for my life. Nothing is free, someone has to pay for it and once they are done soaking the so called rich, who do you think they are going to come after next?
