Nearly 7 in 10 Americans have less than $1,000 in savings

I'm millennial, I have a blue collar job, and yet I still saved enough for a house and a nice safety bubble of money left over. Guess I must be doing something wrong.
 
My only real struggle now is figuring out how to save enough for some significant investing. Thinking about starting my own business but I also need capital for that to get going.

So if people made higher wages they would automatically start saving more? That's the non clown argument?

'People' make the commodities. The thieves will always pay them as little as they can get away with, as you know, because they live on what they steal from working people. And, obviously, the last thing the advertisers want is people saving any of their pittance.

Remember clown we are at full employment according to obama. That means that workers have all the power to negotiate wages up as there is not enough of them to go around :) unless obama is lying :)

As you know, the capitalists will move to somewhere cheaper if they have to pay decent wages - or that's their story, anyway. There will never be 'enough to go round' under capitalism, as you know.
 
I'm always hovering around or just below the $1000 mark. Practically all of the money I make through a part time job and competitions goes towards school, my truck, and equipment. The leftover money goes towards food and maybe new clothes every now and then, and after all of that the rest may go to savings. If not for a couple of scholarships and help from my parents for school and my truck there would be no way id be able to save money really good.

Clearly, Evince agrees with the first part of the post, and adds that the capitalist first therefore need tethering down. It is perfectly clear, except to McCarthyites lasting way beyond their time, presumably as the result of a pact with the Devil.
