Christopher Greene shares his thoughts on the American middle-class white man becoming a minority, ironically enough, in America.

Is he right or wrong?
There are several reasons for this. One is that America's manufacturing bases is being hit hard; what with corporations outsourcing jobs to foreign countries such as China, India, and Mexico; creating thousands of abandoned factories; many of which produce coal, steel, and other materials, especially in middle, rural, and suburban areas. The results are pretty much what you'd expect.

What this means is that unemployment increases; causing many to rely on government assistance or move back in with their parents, they no longer have the disposable income to purchase goods and services, pay their rent/mortgage, and utilities. Various strip malls begin to close down due to Americans no longer having the cash to spend.
As unemployment increases, the role of providing for one's family decreases, leading to fear, desperation, anger, frustration, divorce, domestic violence, disputes over finances among married couples, rising crime and violence, poverty, homelessness and suicides; which we have seen in this time period, particularly of formerly middle and upper-class males and bankers.
And the most incredible aspect of it all, as Christopher Greene points out, the majority of the victim's of economic crises are American white males.
This isn't really far-fetched if you stop to think long and hard about it by doing research on current trends relating to and regarding the impact of negative growth of the American economy as other ethnic groups have also been hit hard and continue to be, even to this day, by the ongoing economic crisis.
And don't get me started on the mainstream media. They are too cozy and coy with their elite bankers as evidenced by the undertaking of influencing American conscience and critical thinking in a very well-known plot, Operation: Mockingbird.
Thank goodness for alternative media. The one thing that stands between us and "manufactured bullshit".
However, it remains to be seen if this can be alleviated or eliminated if America can retain it's once-glorious economic prowess; especially during the Roaring '50s and during the Clinton era, when the economy was booming.
But the damage done by various Ponzi schemes, bank bailouts, and stagnant growth is too great, even if positive gains in the stock market surface.
So is the middle class white male worse off in America?
Perhaps. Perhaps not.
