The middle and lower classes are struggling in this economy. That is a fact. Keep speaking truths, Senator Harris!
Folks say this economy is on the rise. Well, that may be true for shareholders and stockbrokers. But for most people in America, wages are flat — while the cost of tuition, gas, and housing are climbing. We cannot leave the middle class behind.

That’s right! Under Obama I had healthcare after I was laid off, gas was cheap, I got another job after the GOP recession, I could deduct student loan interest and eventually buy a house. None of that now and my taxes are higher than ever before. I Hate Trump!

@US_FDA Wages don't increase, but groceries, other goods & services are going up. Quality & quantity are reduced also, companies change formula of food products (butter, soy milk, etc) then packaging them into smaller quantities and increasing price. We get less and pay more!Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
