Middle-class people worry a lot about money. They worry a lot about job security, and they do a lot of nine-to-five stuff.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A middle class is so important to a society that its value cannot be overestimated.
When you grow up middle class, you just always feel like you've got to be working, or you won't be able to pay the bills.
'Middle class' used to be synonymous with secure, with steady, with boring, because middle-class people were people who were pretty much safe from the time they first started work on through retirement and until their deaths. No longer.
It's the middle class that feels the luxury of being able to have causes.
The American middle class always wants to be upper class and is scared to death of being lower class. It's a highly mobile group of people. They're not like the people that want to be shopkeepers forever, have always been shopkeepers and want always to be shopkeepers. These people mostly are insulted by being called middle class.
The middle class creates us rich people, not the other way around.
The key to a vibrant middle class is an abundance of jobs that pay enough so that workers can provide for themselves and their families, enjoy leisure time, save for retirement and pay for their children's education so they can grow up and earn even more than their parents.
Why is this government so insensitive to the concerns of the middle-class people?
I'm painfully middle class.
It is true that rich people can spend more money than middle class people, but there's this upper limit on what we can spend. I drive a very nice car, but it's only one car. I don't own a thousand, even though I earn a thousand times the median wage. I have a few jackets, not a few thousand.
