Wow, very informative! A lot of us don't appreciate how well we have it here.
Beautiful.
This is brilliant.
Hate to be a party pooper but from the graph, looks to me, that growth really took off when Keynsian policies were adopted.
90% of 65 year old men are retired, vs 26% in 1910.
Let see, wouldn't Social Security have anything to do with that ?
This lecture has inadvertantly affirmed the New Deal and Keynsian economics !!
its been happening since the 70s, taxes and inflation have been destroying the middle class. Both parents have to work now and have less kids compared to only one parent working with more kids.
yep. 1965 was a tipping point. once we went off the silver standard and then again in 71 off the gold standard, americans have been fucked. $1.25/hour in coins minted before 1965 is = to $25.00/hour by today's standards and some would argue it should be much higher like $100/hour - $200/hour
comparing us to 100 years ago?? try comparing us to 40 years ago, and you will see how much we have lost.
incomes have gone down in recent years do to inflation. start pricing wages in terms of gold and silver (real money) and you'll see a decline
Autos are much safer.
