The rich get richer, and poor get poorer. This is not new; It's been constant since the United States became a country. Most of us will always be middle class - a house, a job, a car, spouse, few kids, a few hobbies, two vacations a year. People are saying the middle class is dead. The guy behind me built a fucking airplane in his garage (I'm not joking), and all of my friends are going on vacations much nicer than my folks.

Paul, you need to relax a little.
My kid is taking break from school & working at a new restaurant to help a friend out for $14.50 an hour. His friend works in a high rise in Irvine (15 minutes away) at an unskilled job for $16 an hour. My kid interviewed at 3 companies in that highrise yesterday, for unskilled jobs ranging from $16-$19.50 an hour. Unskilled. Unskilled office work pushing paper. They all wanted him to start immediately. It's been like this a couple years here.

Foreigners acting like America is in turmoil, on its last leg, with Trump as our savior, are severely uninformed and puppets of Putin, whether they know it or not
