What is middle class income actually?
If there were an income distribution chart, with the wealthiest 25% dropped off and the poorest 25% dropped off, what is the range of income in between? From what to what? Would that be what could truly be called the middle class?
I'm looking for the range, bottom to top -- I have a feeling that the top number is going to be lower than we imagine.

In the United States middle class is $45 to $150k.
In the rest of the world the US middles class is considered the top 10% of all wealth
in the word. Crazy how wealthy the US is and takes is for granted.
If you make just $10 a day you are in the top 20% of the wealthiest people in the world.

The median household income in the United States is $46,326. Dual earner households have a higher median income at $67,348. I would call that middle class and even up it to $100k.

If you ask a trailer park conservative he will say 2 welfare checks a week, but if you ask a hard working liberal you might hear about 50,000.
