A family making $150,000 is not middle class? Tom Send a noteboard - 14/04/2011 06:07:07 PM
Perhaps they're skirting the upper end of middle class in some parts of the country, but certainly not in any major urban population center or its suburbs.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

I believe you are questioning one of my definitions, not one of my facts. Tom - 14/04/2011 04:36:35 PM 665 Views
No matter how you define it I think it would be hard to call the top 5% middle class random thoughts - 14/04/2011 05:03:33 PM 681 Views

Cutting the military isn't enough Roland00 - 16/04/2011 04:27:11 AM 636 Views
Defense is 60% of the discretionary budget as well, so it's more like 26% overall. Just sayin'. *NM* Ghavrel - 16/04/2011 04:53:30 AM 309 Views
