#112 Middle Class Beat down

Phantom Penguin on Nov. 18, 2007

Between the credit crunch, the falling dollar, and the outsourcing of unskilled labor the american middle class is taking a beating. No where worse then in Michigan (my home state) where 8% of the population is unemployed and under the poverty level, this being a state with only 10 million people.
With repos on the rise from the credit crunch now is a bad time to be a everyday joe.

As you guys know, Soldiers don’t make a lot of money. Bills pile up, and money is no where to be found. And as you know, I can't really work overtime or extra hours. So i'm reaching out to you, i'm trying to afford to buy a plane ticket home, but i'm flat broke. I reach out to the DDers so I might be able to go home over Chrismas, any amount will do, 1 cent or 1 dollar. You can find the donate button just above the comment area. If you donate any amount I will link your comic here. Thank you very much.
