A large, prosperous middle class may mediate between rich and poor, creating the structural foundation upon which democratic political processes may operate. Without a health middle class a democratic government can not last. A shrinking middle class is a danger sign. Hopefully our leaders are paying attention.Class warfare garbage is just corporate propaganda, nothing more than PR work for them. And a poor attempt in my opinion. People should be outraged. Corporate America is painting the middle class as a bunch of leeches suckling at the tit. That's enough to piss me off. Americas GDP is 25% of the world because of the middle class not the elite. America's infrastructure is the best in the world because of the middle class not the elite. The playing field is NOT level anymore. There is an entitled class but it's not the middle. Americans work longer hours and take less vacation than anyone else in the world. Middle class Americans invest in there educations (college) and communities (housing) more than ever before, only to come into a work field where the virtuous corporations ship jobs over seas to exploit slave labor, or if they are lucky they land a "great" job where the company lets them work 39.5 hrs/wk to avoid giving them and their kids health insurance. Not sure how us middle class people can live with ourselves and our so called entitled views. The corporate greed is disgusting.
Plain and simple: If your not pissed off at these absurd accusations against hard working Americans, then America is no more.
I think our leaders are paying very close attention and all is going according to plan.
