[quote=Anonymous]You know what is sad? - living in a home you own - providing for a quality education for your children - being able to afford basic home and car maintenance - saving for retirement - ensuring health care continues post working age - leaving something of a nest egg for your heirs These are pretty basic things, and should be attainable by our middle class, however you so define it. And yet many of these things no longer are middle class. I have no real answers on where we've gone wrong as a culture - the rise of dual income households, lack of universal healthcare, eroded taxation, easy debt, etc - all probably play some role. But I tell you, even as someone more squarely in the "haves" category than the "have not", it's really sad to see such basic aspirations become squarely for the well off and largely unattainable to at least 50% - if not 75% - of our country.
