I read the headline and sighed.   I am not surprised  - the new poor are members of the middle class.I see it everyday in my house - the family struggles to make ends meet.  Parents are stressed; kids are stressed because they sense their parent's worry and fears.
I don't have a clue as to what the answer to this problem is but I suggest that sub-prime lending and the transfer of manufacturing jobs to China is the cause.  I am not crazy about the credit reporting system  either.  It is nearly impossible to break out of the cycle of poverty once it takes hold.
