Most of the wealth you produce as a worker has been steadily funneled up to the top through the models of supply-side economics... otherwise known as trickle down. The share of wealth going to the workers is at the lowest it has been since the Great Depression and when you combine that with raising health care costs and free trade shipping our jobs overseas you get a nation with 49 million people living in official poverty and another 80 million close to the federal poverty line that hasnt raised with inflation. So realistically what you get is almost half of our nation living paycheck to paycheck and wondering how theyre going to be able to pay their bills.
