Are You Endangered? (EXTRA)

Extinction has come to many different species and many more are endangered. Even though we may not be considered a species as that of the animals featured in this image, it is no question that the middle class is becoming "endangered." With prices rising and paychecks going down, the gap between higher classes and lower classes is definitely getting larger. With the continuation of this gap growing larger we could definitely see the middle class diminish. Scientist have the technology to potentially bring these animals back from the brink of endangerment. Although scientist cannot help the middle class, that is all up to our government. Our government sadly however seems to be working hard to make obstacles for the middle class, that we just cannot overcome.

To imagine a country without a middle class would be a rough image. Yet we are slowly heading that way. With a rough economy and the government hitting road blocks all the way, it's no surprise as to why the middle class is shrinking. Taxes are something that our government use to help balance this class issue but with the lower classes having to pay near what the higher classes pay, it's to no surprise that the classes are drifting apart. 

With all the fear of the middle class diminishing. We can only hope that George Orwell wasn't right in the sense of the powerful staying powerful and running the lower class. 1984 may not be something at all in our future at all but it is a thought that sometimes crosses many minds. We may be concerned about the middle class diminishing be we have awhile to take a chance to look at what is happening. We can become involved in our political affairs of our politicians and help make a chance. We need to help pull our politicians heads out of the sand so they can being to see what is going on around them. Then maybe they can make decisions that not just benefit them but the community as a whole.
