    This completely and wholly ignores the fact that things are getting worse. We’re deep within the sixth major mass extinction event, income inequality is at an all time high greater than the Gilded Age, and billions of people around the world are struggling harder and harder to survive.

    Just because there was a very short time where a middle class truly existed does not magically erase everything that is, in fact, happening. Do not let a stupid, ignorant quip innoculate you against action to fix the problems that DO exist.

        rofl as if a boomer would say things are getting worse, as they pull on their retirement fund that benefitted from every capitalistic expansion of the economy of the last 50 years…

        You are not only wrong, but you are stupidly misinformed on reality if you think I am a boomer…
