Same here.

Lol, I do plan to own one day but not till my kids are older. They've literally trashed the place with toys stuffed down the drain, garbage disposal, etc. Pictures drawn on the walls, a hole in the wall, etc. I can't afford to own till they out grow that!

Um, no. You keep spamming the site with the same comment about calling the GLD hotline. Why?

What's your agenda here?

No, because there is no actual money kept in the banks. You can't even take 10K out in cash because you have to tell them before!

I agree, items I've been keep an eye on actually went UP in price on #PrimeDay, so yes a major fail.

I'm confused. "The cities are where the jobs are." Why is this news, hasn't that always been the case?

While I agree in theory, the author asks a great question - if management new this was coming 3 years ago, why did they wait till now to do something about it. It makes me think there is more to these layoffs than meets the eye.

I had a similar reaction.

I think the author's point was that yesterday's middle class are poor today. People who had jobs, pensions, homes, etc. Are now out of work, having their homes foreclosed and have drained their savings trying to simply keep food on the table.
