The American middle class, long the most affluent in the world, has lost that distinction.Median per capita income was $18,700 in the United States in 2010 (which translates to about $75,000 for a family of four after taxes), up 20 percent since 1980 but virtually unchanged since 2000, after adjusting for inflation. The same measure, by comparison, rose about 20 percent in Britain between 2000 and 2010 and 14 percent in the Netherlands. Median income also rose 20 percent in Canada between 2000 and 2010, to the equivalent of $18,700.

If you know how to secure your rights, they will act to violate your rights. If you have it on film. You can sue since they had no jurisdiction to act anyway. few good lawsuits and they should stop. Problem is people dont know law and see its as a cost, time, hassle to deal with courts. if they make cheap enough for you pay not expensive enough for you to fight.
this guy helped alot as foundation in my research in law.

"McGuire's adult children said it amounted to torture, with the convicted killer's son, also named Dennis, saying: "Nobody deserves to go through that.""
again, they stated ... "Nobody deserves to go through that."
well... about that kids...
Quote from Time article:
"McGuire ... was sentenced to death for the 1989 rape and murder of Joy Stewart"
See kids, the thing is... daddy died a horrible death because Joy didn't deserve that... at all.
Now bring out the next death row inmate to test a new concoction on.

"Easyjet apologises for advertising southern Italian region's 'mafia activity and earthquakes'
'Get a taste of real Italy by bunking down in mafia land', the ad said. But Easyjet's bid to pitch Calabria backfired, and the company was forced to apologise on Tuesday.
Easyjet said the region famous for its coastline, rich history and culture, suffered from "the lack of iconic cities such as Rome and Venice capable of attracting the Instagram crowd"."
