I have to agree with you here-the loss of the middle class is key to so many of our problems, not just this one.

As a boomer, I have to say that our generation has proven a pale shadow of our parents, the "Greatest Generation". We've accomplished very little in the thirty years we've been in control, and basically presided over the further enrichment of the privileged, and the impoverishment of everyone else.
