[QUOTE="ORCUS DEMENS, post: 486503, member: 1779"] Wholeheartedly Agree. Governemnt policies (taxes, revolving door congress/military), cultural shifts (Wolf of Wall Street is Satire not a life style). There is a caveat to this, what people expect as a minimum lifestyle is lightyears beyond what the life style was back then. House size, number of cars, everyone in the family must have a cell phone, yearly vacations, dining out, large screen TV's, smart everything electric bikes/toys. Yes a wife could be stay at home back then but they were definitely not living the same lifestyle as todays average American. Still, finding a good union/scale wage job was not easy if you were not the "Right Kind" of person. [/QUOTE]
