Quotes:

“The stagnation of American middle-class living standards”

I believe that the rising intolerance and incivility and the eroding generosity and openness that have marked important aspects of American society in the recent past have been, in significant part, a consequence of the stagnation of American middle-class living standards.

Ben Friedman, 2005 from the book The Moral Consequences of Economic Growth
