Well, how about the logic behind the assertion that many workers will never recover? Where does that come from?



There is a lot of available data to support it. Google something along the lines of "how many workers live pay check to pay check". It doesn't take rocket science to find it.

It may not take rocket science to find, but you haven't found it. The article says 78% of people "live paycheck to paycheck." And you're saying people who live paycheck to paycheck will never recover.

Neither of which I believe. You're saying 78% of people will never recover, and at the same time calling others "alarmist?"
