6. A nation of sales clerks and part timers can not afford overpriced gas guzzlers

Before the free trade agreements and the war on workers by the GOP, the major profession was blue collar workers. Now it has been replaced by sales clerks. Do you think they pay the same?

And also the employment figures include part timers. The number of part timers has significantly increased but that is not reflected in the employment numbers. Part timers still count as an employed person.

No one is buying new cars cause the workers aren't making any money and the cars are way overpriced.
