Are you saying the average american doesn't have a disposable monthly $100? That is demonstrably false - the statistics about current income and life costs paint the opposite picture: not only Americans but average people all over world are wealthier than they've ever been.

There are inequalities, of course, (like Europeans falling behind) but the Americans are doing very well indeed. So please stop with your propaganda.

Americans have that disposable $100. Now they may very well be deciding to throw it away on cigarettes, alcohol, weed, various entertainment (tv) or all sorts of crap - but that is a whole other discussion altogether.
