Most of America is poor by industrialized nations standards

The middle class in the US is poorer than the middle class in most major industrialized countries.
The majority of the middle class of Canada, western europe, australia, and japan are wealthier than the average middle class American. The US middle class ranks towards the low end of wealth at 19 when compared with other major industrialized countries.
Next time you want to chuckle at Spain or Italy and their economy, know that their average citizen is better off than our average citizen in terms of wealth.

link or stats to back that up?
how do we rank on cost of living?
maybe that has to do with the lowest workforce participation rate in a long damn time?

Higher, but still well below average before the Bush recession.
Average Australian has about 5x the wealth of the average American btw.

Do any of you re-tards recall a financial crisis around 2008, one that was never truly corrected...
Some of you are severely brain damaged by partisan politics.

Yeah. That's bullshite. Middle class here has large homes, multiple cars, boats, and all kinds of other toys and shite. They may skimp on healthcare and other things, but that's their choice.

On phone, so can't. Article is on cnnmoney.com.
Title is: American middleclass, poorer than you think.
Article points out our average wealth per citizen is due to our super wealthy, but our middle class is actually poorer than most industrialized countries.

You can be ignored with this statement and it's ignorance or disingenuousness.

Don't be ridiculous. He's perfectly fine slinging his bovine fecal matter.
