So long, middle class - NYPOST.com

So long, middle class - NYPOST.com: "Compared to the rest of the world, American workers are extremely expensive, and the government keeps passing rules, regulations and taxes that make it even more difficult to conduct business here. What has developed is a situation where the people at the top are doing quite well, while the average family barely gets by. Entitlement programs are expanding at unprecedented rates, but it is the people in the middle — who shoulder the costs of these programs, while their salaries stagnate — who are being squeezed in a sea of depressing statistics."

No kidding--and I get the feeling that a whole lot of these middle class folks understand that they have a big bulls-eye on their chest.
