Read More »We all have our favorite endearing term for the restroom or, more specifically, the toilet. A common term that most have heard, whether you use it or not, is “the john.” If you’ve ever wondered where the term came from, we’re here to uncover the mystery. Taking a look through history, there are actually two probable causes that led to calling the toilet “the john.” The first dates back to Medieval times, when “Jake” and “Jack” were popular names for common men, and later, common objects. At one point in time these names began to be used for describing a small, smelly restroom area inside of a house. Only the very wealthy had jakes/jacks inside of their homes– most others were located somewhere outside. The name “John” was later derived from “Jake” and “Jack.” Secondly but most notable amongst historians, John was the name of the first man credited with inventing the first flushing toilet. John Harington was born during the time in which Queen Elizabeth reigned. His mother was a member of the queen’s chamber. Praised for his work as both a poet and an inventor, Harington created a written plan for a mechanism that would serve as a flushing toilet. At the time, court members in England were thrilled at the idea of a device that could carry waste farther away from private homes. Harington named his flushing toilet concept the “Ajax.” Known for writing several published works, one of his most popular pieces came to fruition shortly after concepting the flushing toilet. It was titled, “A New Disclosure upon a Stale Subject: The Metamorphosis of Ajax.” While the publication highlighted his invention, the larger focus was on the idea of excrement poisoning the state. The book was later banned for a while due to making accusations about Earl of Leicester. This angered but queen, but Harington still installed a flushing toilet for her in 1596, in addition to one in his own home. Unfortunately, John Harington died at age 51. The “Ajax” invention did not take off. Instead, English citizens had to wait until the 18th century for the creation of the S-bend, which is when lavatories everywhere saw a true improvement. On the bright side, wherever Harington is today, he can be proud of his namesake and the fact that people worldwide still sometimes reference the toilet as “the john.” Mr. John offers a wide range of products, including portable toilets, restroom trailers, office trailers, storage containers, and ground-level office containers.

A single American making $30,000 to roughly $90,000 every year is middle-income, according to Pew. A household of two would have to earn around $42,000 to $127,000 to qualify.
The middle class is often a topic of discussion among politicians and economists. But who makes up the middle class? It's a group that's been shrinking over the decades. To be middle class as a single American, you have to make about $30,000 to $90,000. Top editors give you the stories you want — delivered right to your inbox each weekday.

Indeed, most Americans have said that they're part of the middle class. A 2018 Northwestern Mutual study of over 2,000 adults found that 68% of American adults considered themselves part of the middle class — but, as of 2018, just about 52% were middle-class, according to a Pew Research Center analysis of income trends. So who is in the middle class? Broadly, Pew Research Center defines middle-class households as making two-thirds to double America's median income. That adds up to an income range of about $30,000 to $90,000 for single Americans in 2020 dollars. But there are other ways out there that the middle class could be defined, as seen in a Brookings analysis of 12 definitions — including Pew's.
