That is BS. Most middle class people are living better than ever and their home values have soared. Sure, if you live in Detroit, you probably think things are going to H as the car companies fire people left and right but other parts of the Country are booming and begging for workers. And this nonsense that you can't move to where the jobs are is just that....nonsense. Geeez, if you got the price of a bus ticket, you can get there. Even in the Great Depression people and whole families moved across the country. And BTW, $20 per hour starting pay is around $42,000 per year, assuming you get no overtime. If some young single person can't live on that, they are trying to live too high on the hog. In fact, your buddies, the Dems, think that a single person making $42,000 is rich and they want to raise that person'e taxes! What kind of money does it take to live where you are???? You people must be living way over your heads! Young people and old people around here that make $42,000 a year are living quite good. You see, around here people all work for a living instead of sitting around bitching and expecting something for nothing. We have a good work ethic.
