I lived it for a few brief years in the 70s then Reagan fucked us all
It was absolutely true. The only families not on single income were hard laborers or non-managerial retail/fast food and even then a carpenter could easily feed a family of 5.
Lol no, not even close. My dad was a construction worker and my mom was a housewife until 1985, and we lived in the deep south. She took up data entry, and that’s how I got my start on computers.
The context of you being a total dick for no apparent reason? Yeah, that context is loud and fucking clear. Maybe don’t refer to people as “it” in the future and people might take your argumentation a little better.
It never was, if you lived it. TV isn’t a reliable history book

Did you have an iodine deficiency growing up? His whole fucking point is that he WASN’T POOR. Despite having only one parent working in manual labor.
Do you understand the context here? Don’t seem like it.

No reason at all, nope, nothing to do with you being a fuckwit.
So my parents didn’t go to college for the wages of a job worked only during the summer?
They didn’t walk straight into jobs?
My grandfathers didn’t provide for 6 kids each on a solo income in the post war era?
Buddy. We have the history. The records, the paperwork, the video evidence.
Nope. You have vague stories from two generations back of a generation noted for not mentioning the hard parts.
Lmao. No. It really is all documented. This isn’t the dark ages where entire populations drop off the record and reappear 100 years later.
