        My point was (I like your suggestions) that it’s very concerning as to whether anyone will ever again get paid the wages needed to live well. It seems they r trying to pay teacher and construction workers less and less. The value of a days work has been ripped apart.

        Much more easily under Obama. Trump has raised the cost of living in about every area by now, kept wages at a standstill and raised taxes for most of the middle class and the poor in order to grease the palms of his millionaire & billionaire buddies.

        Then why millions of people want to move to the US and just a few want to leave?

        those that immigrate in tend poor people looking for opportunities, which America does offer. however, just because opportunities to the poor are good in the US does not correlate with the middle class being in stable financial standing.

        This is fairly simple to see. Health care is a basic need and cost is insane. Housing costs keep rising. Wages arent keeping up with either unless you're a CEO. The problem isnt new but is growing to be very noticable.

        Even more reason to support and demand unions and work rules. Many complain unions just take your money, they negotiate in ways the individual can't. Ask dad how he got that house, good job, good wages, union protection.

        Do be scared and do something, here’s an idea join the military. People are lazy and just want free shit. The standard of living is insane in this country. People on welfare have smart phones, pets, sometimes more than one car...this is more bullshit news put out by CBS.

        He would have had to think about them in the first place to forget them. He’s never had any interest in anything outside of himself. That’s the issue with narcissists.
