re: Whatever happened to the lower middle class white families like Malcolm in the Middle

Policy is why you see zombies and open drug use in the cities.

Policy is why our government is the largest human trafficker in the world but doesn’t have money for NC.

Making the most money possible regardless of the consequences is moral, right and just. It was those companies’ duty to sell the highest margin product to you even if that meant the product was at significantly lower quality than previously produced.

I'd argue that going for short term profits over everything is now showing to be detrimental for the long term success of a company.

They still exist but only have one kid now because of inflation and NAFTA.

Why they gotta be white?

Chopped all their dicks off and enrolled them in welfare.

Look at Married with Children.

Al Bundy worked as a shoe store salesman in Chicago and lived out in the suburbs in a two story house with a stay at home wife and 2 children. He did drive a beat up old Dodge that barely worked, and Peg never cooked so they were not on government assistance.

Now, I think that house that is shown in the show is valued over 500k. No a way someone making just above minimum wage can afford just the insurance on the house. Heck, Al couldn’t even afford workplace insurance for his family. He would get a bill instead of a Paycheck thanks to Obamacare. On top of all of that the Mall where Al worked is probably closed and now an Amazon Distribution Center. Liability insurance on the hopefully paid off Dodge would also exceed his income with 2 under 25 something’s on the policy.

Heck even their neighbors the D’Arcy’s couldn’t afford their lifestyle. I know she was a bank manager, but unless she was in the corporate structure (VP or President of a Division) she too would have issues affording that house and a Marcedes (misspelled on purpose because that was how Al pronounced it.).

That trickle down wasn’t economics

JFK/LBJ were the first to try trickle down, and it worked.

But to answer the quesiton, the middle class has been pushed out by progressive monetary policy.

1) Debasing of the dollar
2) Importing millions of lowly educated people to drive wages down
3) Establishing relations with China
4) Way too many spending programs and deficit spending

Theyre doing this on purpose. The goal is to have a nation like California, where the middle class is vanishing, and the poor and wealthy thrive.

Liberal spending policies benefit the rich.

In debt up to their eye balls trying to live up to unrealistic expectations society places upon them to demonstrate to the world that they are a success in life.

Govt is destroying the middle class systematically. If youre wealthy or poor, the gubment cares about you

Because both need the federal printing press to survive. The industrial might that the middle class was built on got shipped south of the border and overseas.
