The middle class is over a barrel. Their ability to retire is tied to 401k which is tied to corporations making ever more money. It's a vicious downward spiral.

IMO we need to get savings back into the economic equation and cut the cord to the stock market.

The stock market should be like it was pre-401k and pre-banking deregulation. The stock market should go back to being a place for high risk investors to do their dabbling. The theory that it somehow provides information and distributes risk has been proven wrong.
