Lol...Rachel Maddow......

This is more believable that anything that bitch is involved in.

 
The "hollowing" out of the middle class is a bit complicated. While the numbers of those in the middle class have decreased more of those leaving went up not down.

The American Middle Class Is Losing Ground

"Based on the definition used in this report, the share of American adults living in middle-income households has fallen from 61% in 1971 to 50% in 2015. The share living in the upper-income tier rose from 14% to 21% over the same period. Meanwhile, the share in the lower-income tier increased from 25% to 29%. Notably, the 7 percentage point increase in the share at the top is nearly double the 4 percentage point increase at the bottom."
