The average middle class family is having trouble buying food for their families. Right now many are not concerned about being able to buy a house or social security. They are struggling to feed their families.
The barbecue yesterday exemplified the problem. About $5 a pound for hamburger, $14 for a package of decent hot dogs, steak from $15 to $30 a pound.
This inflation is crushing our society.

The one percent can afford to move their money to another country and leave us worse off. It’s better if you give them incentives to keep their money and businesses here. trickle down doesn't work ... Gard loves the idea of taxing the wealthy as long as it is not him.

The average middle class family is doing just fine, despite what the Fox News watching Henny Penny's would have you believe.
Whatever happened to those that insist financial issues can be solved by simply pulling oneself up by the bootstraps?

Just go to the grocery store and you will see how “great” things are
Some people definitely are living in the twilight zone.

There are a lot that are in the middle class but are below the average middle class.

LOL.... some serious hopium on display.
At the same time as the "awesome" jobs report May jobs revised from 272K, to 218K April jobs revised from 165K to 108K
And the jobs "created" are government jobs.

The consumer price index has gone up 20% since Biden took office.
BT and Ferris seem to think that does not impact the average middle class family.
Sounds like you two do not represent the average middle class family.

This inflation is crushing our society. Where the hell you shopping that hot dogs cost $14 a pack? I bought Nathan's for $7.99 and it was a BOGO, so each pack was $4. I also bought Rib Eye steaks for $11.99 a pound. That was at Publix. You getting ripped off where you shop.
