Very good points, esp. the benefits threshold. And the stratification of wealth is about to get much wider, imo. And ironically it will be paid for primarily by future debt obligations to the middle class. That is, tax cuts primarily favoring the wealthy and which are not paid for by anybody. Eventually the debased $US will be how it is reconciled. Wal-Mart shoppers will see a big rise in retail inflation, and a very small rise in their wages, and continued erosion of their benefits. The losses will be balanced by a substantial rise in abject meanness towards the masses. The night time raid on the independent ethics committee is just the tip of the iceberg, imo.
