14. There is no place for the poor to go; the middle class is strapped
America has always had some poor, some rich and a big solid middle class.

Now: We will actually see a larger upper class-the sort of rich: who don't get sick, get divorced. And then the rest who are always in debt on the edge of a cliff. No security for these people.

Real threat to families with children but also the fabric of our country. Newly weakened middle class.
