Simple: We never stood up and stopped our leaders from throwing the next group out of the middle class. And that "we" means us. All of us.
Believing superstition and calling it economics. Walking into a store and never once checking to see if a US made product was available or even if the source country was an allie or an enemy. Accepting economic fairy tales that hurt our neighbors because it benefits us individually. Allowing trade policy to be used as a weapon of class warfare. And on and on and on...
The middle class died a death of a thousand cuts. But we did it. We chose to trade it in for a few decades of cheap trinkets and debt servitude.
