The Vanishing Middle Class

Your either with us or against us. The middle is disappearing. That's not got to do with the Global War on Terror -- but with your place in the American economy. The middle class is getting squeezed out as middle income jobs disappear. Jobs the Washington Post describes as "computer-code crunchers, produce managers, call-center operators, travel agents and office clerks." Good paying jobs. Jobs that require college degrees or other expensive training. The people who lose them are overqualified for most of the jobs remaining -- but not rich enough to ride out the hard times. (WashPost)
