>What Collapsed the Middle Class?
It’s really simple: All the jobs went overseas and all the cheap labor flooded in.
When jobs become less available and cheap skilled labor becomes available (illegals, H1-B) the wages drop down.
This is an incremental change that happens over time.
Boomers who could buy cars for only 2k and a house for 10k are wondering why millennials can’t ever get their shit together.
Well fren, it takes a hell of a lot more money to buy a car, or a house and we can’t just get a job at ‘the factory’ because you goddamn faggots let it all go overseas.
