More to Running An Economy Than Gift-wrapping "The Marriage Penalty"

Apparently, the democratic party is ready to stake out some new ground:

The biggest reason many Americans are worried about their jobs is not what happened in the 1990s, but what this administration has done over the past seven years that has squeezed the middle class. Since 2001 the middle-class median annual income shrank by $1,000, health insurance premiums rose to more than $12,000 per year up from $6,230 and college costs increased 64%. The national debt also increased by $3.5 trillion.
