44 Facts About The Death Of The Middle Class That Every American Should Know


Once upon a time, the United States has the largest and most vibrant middle class in the history of the world.  When I was growing up, it seemed like almost everyone was "middle class" and it was very rare to hear of someone that was out of work.  Of course life wasn't perfect, but most families owned a home, most families had more than one vehicle, and most families could afford nice vacations and save for retirement at the same time.  

Sadly, things have dramatically changed in America since that time.  There just aren't as many "middle class jobs" as there used to be.  In fact, just six years ago there were about six million more full-time jobs in our economy than there are right now.  Those jobs are being replaced by part-time jobs and temp jobs.  


The number one employer in America today is Wal-Mart and the number two employer in America today is a temp agency (Kelly Services).  But you can't support a family on those kinds of jobs.  We live at a time when incomes are going down but the cost of living just keeps going up.  


As a result, the middle class in America is being absolutely shredded and the ranks of the poor are steadily growing.  The following are 44 facts about the death of the middle class that every American should know...
