I guess that means that 1 out of 5 households made lots of money while the other 80% made crap. I guess that could be true since there really was no middle class. Just people with money and people without.
Look around - "no middle class" might be where we're headed. I am fortunate to have grown up when I did. When ethical work and dedication meant job security. These times, they are a changin'.
