Sorry I can't quote the source -- but the gist of it is ---

All were taking from society, assuming others were producing, and then society collapsed.

"We Are All In A Ponzi-World Right Now, Hoping To Get Bailed-Out By The Next Person"

"We all are in a Ponzi world right now. Hoping to be bailed out by the next person. The problem is that demographics alone have to tell us, that there are fewer people entering the scheme then leaving. More people get out than in. Which means, by definition, that the scheme is at an end. The Minsky moment is the crash. Like all crashes it is easier to explain it afterwards than to time it before. But I think it is obvious that the endgame is near."

When I was a child, the working class white male dominated society. There were fewer really rich people than now, even those up the professional or corporate ladder were simply upper middle class, living in nicer but normal suburbs. The garbage man lived four houses down form us, his house was decent, his car was decent and he was raising 5 kids. The Milk Man was on our block, he had a stake in the creamery where he worked, so he was more than just a delivery guy, the Dime Store Owner was a block up, his house was new, nice, but small. The Mail Men, we had two on our block, same small conservative but decents homes and cars, steel workers and rail roaders made up half the town. All made good livings. ALL these people were white, middle class, workers. Conservative, we knew the forst names of the cops, the Sheriff was my Sunday School teacher and scout master. Nobody was above anyone, they shared a common culture.
Was that good? Bad? What? I don't know, I just know that that is how it was. My best friends on the block had parents who like this. The County Highway Engineer, The Milk Man, the Mail Man, and 3 had steel worker parents. We took a middle class life for granted. The Military Recruiters loved our town, ususally 1/2 of all graduating boys enlisted within 12 months. No for careers, not for training, not for pay and benefits. We all did it because we were taught that that is what men did, it was a duty, those who shirked it were looked down on.
America was a totally different world, but as I hit teenage years it was already blowing up in their faces. Mass layoffs in steel, the rail roads and closing small manufactering. The New World Order would not tolerate payscales that supported middle class life. The NWO was a race to the wage bottom, still going on. j
International Trade Agreements (ITAs) like NAFTA, GATT, and WTO (and the proposed TPP and TTIP) are sponsored by big business. They are sold to the public as opening foreign markets to American manufacuturers, but they allow American manufacturers to move their factories to foreign countries and allow manufactured goods from those foreign countries to enter America freely.

At the end of WW2, America was the manufacturing powerhouse of the World, and as time went on the American workers gained the good middle class life. But as wages and red tape grew, and the rest of the World recovered and opened up, big business sought to escape high wage costs and high regulatory costs - hence the push for ITAs and the loss of jobs from America. The expansion of consumer debt and government social programs (funded by debt) allowed the American middle class to maintain its middle class life stye and even seem to prosper, until debt saturation and the 2008 financial crisis exposed how weak the American economy had become.
The "Rust Belt" phenomenon of the Reagen years showed the beginning demise of American manufacturing, taking many union jobs with it. Now, both husband and wife usually have to work to support a small family. Stay-at-home moms are becoming rare and often are on a government welfare program.
Meanwhile, the Multinational corporations manufacture offshore, sell in 1st world countries, keep their headquarters in tax havens for accounting purposes, and hide their incomes. Service centers and call centers are more often than not in India or the Phillipines. The American worker is becoming an endangered species. atf

Just have to watch the alleged consolidation of metrics and who was targeted. Why should be self evident by now even before Alfred Marshall.
