[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Overall quality of life is decreasing for everyone, from the lower class to the upper class. Even though percentage wise this income puts you in the 97-99th, it doesn't feel that great because a top 3% lifestyle now is different from a top 3% lifestyle 50 years ago. Going down to the 90th percentile which is under 200k/yr, most families who make that are barely getting by. [b]To really be comfortable nowadays you need to be in the top 0.5%,[/b] not even a 1% income feels that rich.[/quote] Ok let’s put in perspective. You are saying 99.5% of the US population is not comfortable. They are barely getting. This is in the largest economy and richest country in the world. If 99% of Americans are “poor”, the rest of the world is what? You are delusional. [/quote]
