That is exactly what middle class means.

What income level for a single person no kids do you think is "Middle Class"?

I'd say middle class for single no kids would start at 60k and go up to 120k. It can also vary regionally. New york, San Francisco, Boca...Can throw these numbers off. 

That's only 22% of the population. It's supposed to be 40%.

About the best you can hope for is 10% in poverty in pretty much any economic system. which for a single person is 25k or lower not the 16k they pretend it is now. Which is 31% of the population

Working class is 25-60k. which is supposed to be 40% of the population.  And it actually is it's at 38% right now.

Then you've got the middle class which is 60k-125k supposed to be 40% and is only 22%. THAT'S the problem it has shrank. Much of these people were pushed down into working class. And many of the working class pushed down into poverty.

Then you're upperclass. Which is again supposed to be the top 10% is about correct.

Among all these classes the .1% is siphoning off to much. Even the "lower upper class". Many of the people making 120k -250k are working 60 hours a week killing themselves and should be making a bit more. Something much of reddit never has any sympathy for. These are your "directors" at the companies you work for.

Everyone is getting fucked by .1%. The people in 30% or lower are getting fucked the hardest. But even the people in the 91 percentile are getting screwed some as well.

An example of people pushed out of the middle class? Teachers. Those people are now in the "working class" and they are supposed to be "middle class". It takes at minimum 4 years of school to become one. And it wouldn't even take much to push them back to where they are supposed to be. They are only about 12k away from where they should be. That 12k a year can make a BIG difference.
