Please, you are delusional. The US is headed to developing country status and if you look at all other developing countries, you'll see what's happening here. There's a small and privileged upper class, a huge lower class, and a middle class that's doing barely better. The wealthy are good at adapting to this situation, and keep the lower classes in line by throwing out scapegoats and manufactured issues to fight over like dogs. So no, the French Revolution will not be happening again.[/quote]

Not really. The % of young people earning college degrees is considerably higher than it was 20 years ago. [b]What type of jobs will they be working? Middle class jobs.[/b]

The issue is with low-skilled workers. Factories are become more automated, and the people that do work in them need advanced skills. With that, they can do OK as a middle class worker, but without those extra skills, they'll definitely be lower class.

We need to increase apprenticeship and vocational training.[/quote]

The facts on the ground disagree. Half of young college graduates are either unemployed or underemployed, and it's been that way for several years now. A full 50% of graduates either can't find work or can't find work that required the last four years of their lives.[/quote]
