re: Nice opinion piece on income inequality from CNN

Congratulations. My husband and I both have similar stories. I went to college on a scholarship, and he worked his way through, and we have both been successful in our respective careers.

However, to quote Spleen,

The problem is the rate of income growth for the wealthy has far outpaced the rate of growth for the poor and middle class. You'd expect that for the poor, but it is alarming when compared to the middle class. The middle class is being squeezed by both ends, and that's not a good thing.

At just making six figures, you're in this category of being squeezed.
