Maybe NYT should call back some of their reporters from Midwestern diners with exclusively upper-middleclass white men, and have them meet actual, real Americans in the cities and streets of the rest of the US?

Democrats are such cowards. If only they had waited until after Thanksgiving. The mess this shut-down would have caused at airports would have woken up thousands of middleclass and upper middleclass Americans who have been asleep through this shutdown. I am beyond pissed!

Went for groceries last night for my #middleclass family and actually had to take some items out of my cart due to rising #groceries prices.

What so many fail to realize is that if you give government money to a rich person or corporation, they hoard it. If you give it to a poor-or-middleclass person it goes right back into the economy. The "war on the poor" only hurts the economy in general

#Foodbanks arent being resupplied either due to USDA shutdown, and theyre currently barely keeping up w/ demand, and it ISNT JUST THE POOR AFFECTED. MILLLIONS of working/middleclass families depend on those two food sources so they can afford outlandish rents and cars and gas to get them to the jobs

loving societies treasure their people: women, men and intersex people; white, black, brown and albino people; gay, lesbian, bi, trans, asexual, queer, 2 spirit as well as straight people; rich, poor and middleclass people;
hateful societies care only about select groups such as rich white males;

The Shutdown throws a spotlight on economic uncertainty. But the deeper truth of financial inequality is baked into the pie.

Sorry, Gen Z.
Enjoy your slice.

Although it does deliver on a vintage middleclass British aesthetic, this exhibition is about more than nostalgia ✍️Julie Brominicks

A reminder that the Boomer generation could afford a house and car on a single income during the days of double-digit interest rates. #IncomeInequality #MiddleClass

Crazy how NYT can fly reporters all over Midwest to interview every upper-middleclass white dude in a diner, but cannot figure out how to get one reporter to Chicago to report that it is *completely peaceful*

The situation is forcing the People's hand. We the People will of necessity look for other ways to make health insurance work, and looking about- why not healthcare for all? We're already paying, and paying, and paying.
The wealth of the Great MiddleClass was transferred to the wealthy.They owe.

REAGAN STARTED THE DECLINE OF AMERICA’s MIDDLECLASS. Fairness doctrine undone, America gets FOX and keep hostages in Iran longer for his personal benefit in the election

I love how inclusive it is.

One of my favourite bits is when middleclass home counties women who start slightly snooty become 'I will DIE to protect my sewing friend, the black, non-binary drag queen!!!'

My whole plan for any kind of middleclass life is being obliterated by the oligarchy's calvinball rug pull.
The Dept of Education is now accepting comments on a proposed rule that would overhaul Public Service Loan Forgiveness, and make it too expensive for students to go into work that threatens the Trump administration

Folks have til *Sept. 17* to oppose the changes

Trump's whole administration is unqualified incompetent lying corrupt partisan hacks,loot the treasury and giving it to the rich and corporations and making the poor and middleclass pay for it.Reducing services that aide the most vulnerable without a care.

It should be the best person for the job, regardless of colour, background, faith, orientation etc. People have been fighting for that for decades.

And now UK judges have just said it's ok to employer someone just like you. You know, white, middleclass, cishet.

Ridiculous.

You make a good point. There's other stuff like "what to do when you get an eviction notice" that people who come from even lower-middleclass childhoods into poverty as adults may not know how to handle. Info is good, you're right.

I'm expressing distaste with Americans this week.
