When you consider the rising cost of health care and weak wages coupled with low benefits, it is no wonder that middle class people don't really see a good economy. It's hard to spin the reality of every day living with success.
Go stick your head in the sand.
Since when did investing your 401K equate anywhere to Enron?
You must be suggesting working class people are too stupid to understand how to invest in mutual funds in their 401k's. So you must agree with Kerry that working class people must go in the military.
Are you suggesting all those who got duped in Enron out of their live savings were just stupid?
Anyway, my main point was the next line about the rising cost of health coupled with weak pay raises with fewer benefits making a dent on the economy of the middle class. This was a long time in coming (not necessarily the fault of republicans) but it needs addressing. And yea, the new Medicaid program sucks for seniors which further erodes middle class wealth.
