Middle Class Power: The Truth About Who Really Builds America

What the #MiddleClass probably knows instinctively, explained explicitly: #USPol

> At $40,000, you are drowning, but the state gives you a life vest. At $100,000, you are drowning, but the state says you are a “high earner” and ties an anchor to your ankle called “Market Price.”

Would be interesting to learn, whether this pattern/problem occurs in Germany as well.

Trump _Says_ He’ll Defy Court Order And Won’t Give Out SNAP Benefits

The president _appears_
to want to ignore a court order to pay the benefits

Trump pointed to higher SNAP spending during his predecessor’s administration, although the increase began in 2020, during the coronavirus pandemic, in Trump’s first term.

“SNAP BENEFITS, which increased by Billions and Billions of Dollars (MANY FOLD!) during Crooked Joe Biden’s disastrous term in office (Due to the fact that they were haphazardly ‘handed’ to anyone for the asking, as opposed to just those in need, which is the purpose of SNAP!), will be given only when the Radical Left Democrats open up government, which they can easily do, and not before! Thank you for your attention to this matter,” Trump wrote.

As food aid expired, Trump cheered his marble bathroom and held a ‘Gatsby’ party https://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/maddowblog/food-aid-expired-trump-cheered-marble-bathroom-held-gatsby-party-rcna241552 #oligarchy #fascism #workingclass #middleclass #poverty #foodinsecurity #snap #politics #marieantoinette #MAGA #governmentshutdown #shutdown #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

One way of understanding middle class political disquiet in the UK is to look at international comparison of the earnings of the top 10% of workers (which includes the 'upper middle class' & is what many budding middle class workers aspire to in their careers).

While the top 1% are still doing well in international terms, the relative fall in top 10% incomes may explain some of the middle class anger that seems to lie behind our current political travails?

Food for Thought

⚙️ Every age calls itself free, but the workers still serve unseen masters.

From plow to algorithm, “independence” remains a beautiful illusion. 💸

🏭 The rise of the Victorian middle class reshaped society itself — born of industry, driven by ambition, and destined to define modernity. 💼

But they're now vanishing into the widening gap between rich and poor. Feudalism is rising again.

⚖️ A republic cannot stand without balance — and the middle class once kept it.

Now, inequality grows like rot beneath its foundations. 💸

Your tax "cut" is a scam. ⚠️
The average middle-class family will be $1,300 POORER by 2027. Why? New, hidden tariffs & deep spending cuts wipe out the small tax benefit. It's a wealth transfer, not a win for workers. 😠
