I do not feel that way. I feel that this is still a land of opportunity and that there is still a great chance for anyone to achieve what he or she desires even with an economy that goes up and down, and when even in down times it is so much better than much of the rest of the world. Our “crisis†economy of 2008 has far lower unemployment and lower inflation than past downturns, the stock market is still over 11,000 DJIA and yet today it seems fashionable to ramp up the whining.
Is your soul broken, are you truly struggling to barely make it every day? :-1
Perhaps you have to be a graduate of Princeton and Harvard and clear half a million a year in income to be able to see into the souls of middle class working Americans who have given up on America or to know what barely making it really means.
Either that or you have to have the insight of Michelle Obama.
