Regardless of prior political achievements by either party, I think most voters just want to know if they and their children will be able to afford to live out the rest of their lives in a comfortable way–will they be able to afford their homes?–can they afford healthcare?–will they be able to retire? etc., etc., and it’s not looking good.
Although a small percentage of Americans at the top are acquiring more wealth, stats reveal that more and more people are drifting downward financially and losing ground–not just those in the middle class–especially as more and more of the population approaches their 50’s and loses their earning power for whatever reasons–so, imo, watching how those stats change for better or worse in the coming years will clearly tell us everything we need to know about the true power of either party. Because, if you can’t change what matters
most–what’s the point?
