There's a lot of legit ways to make money...and a lot of illegal ways too! Why do so many middle class and working class people resort to the underground economy, the cash society, and working under the table just to make ends meet? Drugs, sex, guns, telephone scamming, tiger parts (yes, it's true) and even your local electrician might be part of this hidden economy.

What goes up...must come down.
The American Empire has been great while it lasted.
But the end of the Middle Class is a mirror image of the end of the American Empire.
It's happening, but what to do to stop it?
From Donald Trump to Marjorie Taylor Green.
From QAnon to the insurrection on the Capitol.
What divides the U.S. will lead to its downfall....

It sure is fun to stick it to the man.
Just think of all those Redditers from WallStreetBets.
All those small investors...all those middle income earners...sticking it to the one per centers...those guys that run the big hedge funds.
It showed the world the holes in the Wall Street system.
It cost the hedge funds a lot of money. It cost Robin Hood too.
But in the end, it has to come to an end.
And if you didn't get out in time...it only cost the little guy once again.

What's a welfare state, and how does it impact on the middle class. From Scandinavian countries to Canada and America, there are stark differences in welfare state programs in the western world. Universal programs with little bureaucracy, needs based programs with lots of bureaucracy, and a country with relatively no welfare state programs at all.

Middle Class life is totally different for city people compared to country folks.
Country people were raised differently...with different cultures...language...food...way of life.
It effects the way farmers think and what they believe, that is NOT the same as the homogenous mix in Canadian cities.
And most importantly, it effects the way Canadians vote. It's not that different than the American experience.

1978 was the first year that more than 50% of women worked outside the home.
1983 was the first year that more than 50% of university grads were female.
Did these milestones help or hurt the Middle Class?
Is part-time work like the GIG economy the new normal?
What's a "good job" anyway?
