<br/><br/> "The lower middle class now [2001] accounts for one-sixth of the U.S. population, amounting to a market worth as much as $120 billion per year. Why have mainstream marketers paid so little attention to those in the lower-income echelons?" (AMERICAN DEMOGRAPHICS) The author examines the reasons marketers ignore the lower middle class and observes that it is changing as retailers find ways to attract the working poor consumer.
