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.
The reason the Banking crisis hit the world so hard was because we have given away our manufacturing industry.

People are looking for jobs and you know where they are, they're in the manufacturing areas. They've been looking for them ever since the jobs were shipped out of the country and the products they once made. Shipped back in.
