134. You're saying that the upper middle class needs help the most.
That is, to put it gently, some of the stupidest, most self-interested shit I've ever heard. You ought to be ashamed of yourself for saying such a thing.

I'm sure it really sucks having to make a car payment and the mortgage and all, but there are a lot of people who would kill to have those problems, and have more pressing needs like putting new tires on their aging car or filling the cupboards up so they can stretch the grocery budget in lean times, because they could never in a million years afford a new car or a house of their own. They need the help a lot more than prosperous, if overstretched, middle class does, and for the most part more than many of those people can even imagine.
