Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The Quiet Collapse of the Middle ClassHow Inflation, Education, and Policy Broke the PromiseFor decades, Americans believed in a simple bargain: work hard, play by the rules, and the middle class would provide stability, security, and upward mobility. Today, that promise feels broken. Wages…have stagnated, costs have soared, and debt has become a fact of life. Yet the collapse is not dramatic-it's quiet, insidious, and often invisible, leaving families stretched, stressed, and unsure how they fell behind.In The Quiet Collapse of the Middle Class, award-winning analyst Roger S. Smith traces the slow erosion of economic security across generations, industries, and regions. From rising housing costs and student debt to the shift from pensions to 401(k)s, from the disappearance of vocational pathways to the invisible pressures of dual-income households, Smith reveals how policy choices-not personal failure-reshaped the middle-class landscape.This is not a book of blame. It is a book of clarity. By connecting lived experience with structural forces, Smith illuminates why the numbers often look fine even as families feel stretched to the breaking point. Through data, stories, and regional comparisons, readers will see how the American dream has quietly shifted, why resilience still holds, and what can be done to restore balance. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Design, RSL (ilustrador).
