Nowhere did I say everyone. I said the majority of the US live paycheck to paycheck which isn't everyone just the majority. There are plenty of stats that back this up.
I think we all agree most live paycheck to paycheck, but maybe disagree on the reason? To me, if you're making $20k more than someone who is living paycheck to paycheck and all else is equal, you're living paycheck to paycheck because of your own choices.
