The percentage of Americans who say they are in the middle or upper-middle class has fallen 10 percentage points, from a 61% average between 2000 and 2008 to 51% today.
That number is still too high. It should be about 33% (but then about 80% of Americans consider themselves "above average" drivers, too).
That devastated American remains counted as "full-time employed" because he still has full-time work -- although with drastically reduced pay and benefits.
Nonsense. 2015 saw the largest income increases ever recorded at each of the bottom four quintiles.
