I think offshoring jobs has CRUSHED the +/- two sigma part of the population

Crushed?

Is life really so awful for the people who earn in the 30% to 70% bracket of national salaries? If someone finishes high school, avoids drugs and alcohol, and gets married, and works, is life really that awful?

That life in the USA is better than 95% of the lives of the world's population.

It's only disappointing because in the US there are always loads of people doing much much better than them, and they may be jealous. But if they ignore those in the US that are outperforming them, life is fine for them (I think, ya know, who knows?).

And frankly, working on a line in manufacturing is awful. I'd rather have 50% of the pay, and work in a Walmart today than work on a 1960's production line.
