Squeeze on the middle class

The middle class is being squeezed by stagnant income and higher expenses. This report refers to the situation in America. It applies to Singapore as well, except that both the middle and lower income classes are being squeezed.

This is caused by the widening income gap, brought about by deregulation, globalisation and the free market. This is bad for the future of society.
