The problem is that “benefits” of all types, have stabilized, not just “stagnated”, yet COSTS have indeed continued to rise faster to the benefit of the few who determine those costs as PROFITS to them. Narrowing gaps is the easiest way to make a sound bridge to the future. Lots’a luck with that.
“The middleclass being squeezed by stagnant wages or no wages and rising health care insurance costs is something brought on by Obama and the democrats.”Keep telling yourself that as the new GOP majority works to cut any spending that supports the working class, while dishing tax cuts & de-regulation at the uber-wealthy.Wage stagnation predates Obama by decades. Unsustainable increases in the cost of healthcare predate Obama by decades. But congratulations on selling a con-job to enough people to take the Senate.Good luck keeping it after people see what a Republican Congress’ priorities actually are.

There’s no problem(s) that a combination of an invasion somewhere and tax cuts for the rich won’t fix.
