Don't listen to your batshit uncle or whoever who keeps telling you how great things were in the "Good ole days" they were absolutely worse. [I Love History]

In the 1950s Yes gasoline was 31 cents a gallon then, but the poor attendant delivering it was only making $1.25 an hour.

And a burger cost 30 cents, and a house cost $7 500.
And median incomes were about $3000


Compared to today where a house costs $285 000 And median income is $48 000.

That information is useless without relative inflation values .js🤷‍♀️

And in general society was friendlier and jobs way more available.

@OogieBoogie Why would I have expertise about the 1950s lol? I'm jsut tired of the republicans selling Nostalgia about it, like we can recapture lost glory. I'm pretty certain we cannot.

@PDXNative1986 to be honest dude , I don't like having to go watch a video , when you could tell me your reasoning in your own words .
I'm not gonna rum around for replies when you could just post the video or tell me yourself.

Ok.
