The disappearing middle class

I spoke with a realtor about putting my house up for sale today and the news is grim. I will be lucky to walk away owing nothing. The loss of jobs in Michigan has created a tidal wave of people walking away from their homes and businesses failing around us. Housing prices are awful. I will probably have to stay put for now. I really get tired of hearing about the Republicans and their wonderful tax cut 90% of which aided the poor or the wealthy. Mr Bush saved me a whole 200 dollars a year however venture capitalists pay only 15% tax on their gains not the 35% the rest of us pay. They can afford the wealthy lobbyists to protect their interests. I am generation f#*!ed as I'm a tail end baby boomer who has had her pension frozen soc security benefit decreased and I have to work longer to get it The gov acts like soc security is a hand out vs something I've paid into my entire working life. Time for change.
