Скачать или смотреть The Bridge Is Cracking | How America Lost Its Middle Class

Wanna Help Support the Channel. buymeacoffee.com/paladinpuffball Thank You. The middle class used to be the bridge between surviving and thriving. A place where hard work translated into stability — a home, savings, a vacation once in a while, a future you could actually plan for. But somewhere along the way, that bridge started to crumble… quietly, slowly, piece by piece.

In this story-driven episode of Paladin Puffball, we take a calm, reflective walk through how the middle class in America began to disappear — and why so many people today feel like they’re working harder than ever while falling further behind. Blending narrative, facts, and gentle game references, we explore what happened to wages, why essentials became luxury-priced, how wealth drifted upward, and what it actually means when a society loses its middle.

This isn’t a rant. It’s a story about real people stuck between two worlds: those rising into wealth and those slipping toward struggle. And somewhere in the middle… millions are holding on with everything they have.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
– Why wages flatlined while costs exploded
– How housing, healthcare, and education quietly redefined “affordable”
– Why two incomes became the new requirement for basic stability
– How wealth concentrated at the top reshaped the entire economy
– What a disappearing middle class means for the future

If you’ve ever wondered why life feels harder than it should — even when you’re doing everything right — this episode is for you.
The bridge may be cracking, but the story isn’t over.
