The idea that Obama killed the middle class is incredibly ignorant and anti-Obama rhetoric based in partisan talking points of no merit. Automation, Computers, Outsourcing and Global Competition are killing the middle class because firms make their money overseas (like Trump) and Americans would rather buy poorly made products multiple times rather than quality that costs more but only has to be purchased once. Wait 'til China reigns in its crappy processes and starts making quality, tell your kids to learn Mandarin; this century belongs to the Chinese.
