The middle class makes up the biggest part of the American population. Unfortunately, it is also the most disgruntled group due to the adverse effects of poor government policies that have seen their income continue to decline while expenses continue to go up. Fundamental expenses like education, healthcare, housing and taxes continue to become more and more costly, and in most cases also more inefficient, leaving the lower and middle classes always struggling to afford a decent lifestyle. So is there still any hope for lower and middle-class Americans or is it all downhill from here? In The Middle Class Comeback: Women, Millennials and Technology Leading the Way, Munir Moon puts across a strong argument in favor of positive change coming. America's lower and middle class citizens have been pushed into a tunnel that seems to get darker by the day, but Munir Moon gives clear and detailed points to illustrate that there is a bright ray of light at the end of this tunnel. Changes brought on by female empowerment, technology advancement, and the power of millennials are giving the middle class more strength and a perfect opportunity to make a comeback. The old ways that benefit the few at the expense of the majority are being challenged, paving the way for desperately needed changes.

In The Middle Class Comeback, the latest book by Munir Moon, Munir delves into the subject on everyone's lips lately; the disappearance of middle class America and the increasing gap between the very rich and the poor. The book focuses not just on falling income, but also on the rising costs of basic necessities, increased taxation, and the cost of education. All combined, they create a stagnant class, unable to participate fully in the American Dream of upward mobility. Unlike most articles and books on the subject, Moon doesn't insist on painting a picture of doom and the impending apocalypse. Instead, he offers a plethora of solutions, as well as a unique way of looking at problems, and a strong admiration of the rise of small businesses fully entrenched in the digital era.

I really enjoyed reading The Middle Class Comeback, since although I'm interested in politics and the economy, I didn't feel that I was as knowledgeable as I could be.

I also liked that he refused to fall back on the tired cliches usually bandied about regarding Millennials and their work ethic. The information provided was really eye opening and I definitely plan on referring to The Middle Class Comeback again in the future.
Do you believe that the middle class still exists? Do you consider yourself and your family part of the middle class? The term 'middle class' is relative, depending upon how it's being used from economic to qualitative definitions. The essence of the middle class is quickly shifting from that of over twenty years ago. We all strive to have financial security, and a better quality of life, but with rising health care costs, raising a family and preparing for the future ... is this possible? The Middle Class Comeback: Women, Millennials, and Technology Leading the Way by Munir Moon is an account of the history of the fall of the middle class and how the middle class is expected to rise once again. Munir takes us through the different elements that affect the middle class way of living from the healthcare system and education to politics.
In The Middle Class Comeback, Munir points out that the top one percenters have the ability to make a difference. For example, having the top one percenters give back by managing and adopting an inner city, preferably their own, and stimulating the community through social responsibility, education, business, economic development and school programs, the cities can once again thrive. Kudos to Eva Longoria, George Lopez, and Denzel Washington for their involvement in inner-city communities.
Did you know that, collectively, the middle class can make a difference through consumer buying power? Bank of America $5 monthly debit card fee and Netflix monthly subscription increase are two examples where the middle class consumer buyer power changed big business outcomes. One thing that will be interesting to watch, as Munir points out, is the millennials' way of living; this is beginning to be the change in the middle class structure for the future. If you want to be ahead of the game and learn more about the evolution of the middle class, reading The Middle Class Comeback: Women, Millennials, and Technology Leading the Way by Munir Moon is a great start.
