Is this the end of the middle class?

I like to think (at least to myself) that I am part of the middle class (albeit the lower part). Having said that. I don't know how much longer I can make myself believe it. There seems to be a push by corporate America and those in political power today to eliminate the middle class as we know it. I look around at what is happening with wages and benefits ( or the lack there of) offered by business and see a downward trend. It looks like they want only two classes - RICH  and POOR. This is something that I find very strange. It has historically been, that the middle class is what buys the bulk of the products that business produces not the rich or the poor. If this is the case, why would you eliminate your best customers?
The only thing I can surmise, is that they want to sell there products overseas and only need cheap labor her to produce them. With lower wages they can hire more bodies which makes it look good for  labor statistics and they can make more profits.

I just hope that this comes back to haunt them. But I fear it will take a revolution before we see any positive changes.
Keep fighting for what is fair and just.

Snyder' less than brilliant governing style

I must ask a question. Why would you tax people who can least afford it, just to give it to people who don't need it. I have an eighty four year old mother that still needs to work to make ends meet. She doesn't live high on the hog or waste money. She grew up in the depression and learned to mind her money and that is probably a good thing with this economy. I also have married friends that both work two jobs. Unfortunately neither have a degree and have not been able make much more than minimum wage. this is just a sample of the people that Snyder has cast aside in favor of his corporate cronies.
So let's give Reaganomics another go, maybe this time it will work. Yeh right!!! More later.
Take Care all.
