The End of the Middle Class

Today on CNBC, they have announced (in so many words) the end of the middle class!  Evidently, since 1978 the average per-capita income of $33,000/yr has remained flat into 2011...in statistics double speak, that is actually a huge degrease!  Meanwhile, the upper 1% of income earners has seen a 30% increase in the same time frame! Huh?

Are we all "Wage Slaves" getting the crumbs from the table of the wealthy?  Why would reasonable men put up with this crap?  Why aren't we rioting like in the Middle East?  Are we sheeple?


As I pointed out in a recent Tweet..."Aspire to be rich, not poor!"
