    Yup it is crazy how much people could earn, buy a house, buy all that stuff and still kinda swim in money.

    The Generation of my Grandparents was like that. Rebuilding the country, enjoying the unrestrained economic growth, having a really good and early pension… it is crazy.

      It’s the billionaires. Apparently it was trickle-up economics all along.

        • No don’t you get it? We can allow them to control all wealth in existence because that doesn’t hurt our economy because some celebrity economist from my high-school economics class in the 70s told me that value was theoretically infinite.
