States where the middle class is shrinking fastest
no shock, CA leads all states. LOL.

The American economy is by many measures well on the road to full recovery. The national unemployment rate was 6.2% in 2013, down from 9.3% in 2009; U.S. gross domestic product grew 5% in the third quarter of 2014; and the S&P 500 recently reached its all time high.

And yet the middle class, which historically was the driver of economic growth, is falling behind. The average income among middle-class families shrank by 4.3% between 2009 and 2013, while incomes among the wealthiest 20% of American households grew by 0.4%.......

I've got retail stores throughout my community that are closing down. Empty, boarded up storefronts everywhere.

The latest casualty was STAGE. Of course, they suck anyway

Re: States where the middle class is shrinking fastest
the commerce and marketplace of the whole world will grind to a halt

prior to the end of this Age

slowly and then rapidly until all such simply ceases to exist and function as once it had

dead in the water, sorta like the sealife

like unto what will be left of this Age as a whole in truth

dying gasps with sprinklings of enlightenment amidst the glowering gloom

of destruction on every level in all regard

why of course it is. it all started with something like this:

mid 80's: NAFTA

The 90's: service and manufacturing jobs started going overseas

2000: more sectors were added including menial tech jobs ---> india, china

2010 to present: engineering, customer service jobs, tech support ------> india

try calling any customer service rep up and getting a white person to answer the phone.

I dare you.
