England is still something close to that and look at what that got them. Granted, if they finally snap they will have more of a numbers advantage than we do.
This is a big one. Small businesses hadn't been crushed under the heel of regulatory capture yet, so it was still possible to have a local economy that wasn't in danger of being destroyed by Amazon/Walmart.
Women were in the workforce, but not in the numbers that would come in the 70's. HR departments are what have really fucked us in this regard, as well as Griggs vs. Duke Power and the CRA.
The whole migrant situation is like throwing a nuke on a house fire.
Not only has affirmative action done tremendous damage, but the student loan program artificially increased the cost of education even as the quality dropped to the point that we now have a whole generation sold a lie and are drowning in debt with worthless degrees.
#5: I went the route of doing the 2 years community college program and then transferred into a State school. Did a STEM degree. Final loan(s) amount was 27.5k. I just paid it off in May with about 3k in interest.
You think that's bad? It's insane seeing these kids come out of school with 40-50k of debt.
It's even more insane that corporations are requiring college degrees for positions that really shouldn't require them, so now we have people saddled with debt that they otherwise would not have, to get paid shit wages that aren't really enough to live on while paying off said debt. That's not even getting into obviously bullshit degrees like gender studies.
College is literally a scam now, and the corporations are even making STEM degrees pointless with all their AI and imported jeets.
