The disappearance of the middle class in the developed countries
According to the intelligence assessmen of the National Intelligence Council, one of the most important trends over the coming two decades will be the growth of the middle class, which “will become the most important social and economic sector in the vast majority of countries around the world”.

in which success, creation and talent will be punished.
