What?Why are nikkas dapping this?
Hes not wrong..
1860s
Nah I was exaggerating clearly, but let's not act like shyt wasn't relatively cheap as fukk in the 1960 baby-boom generation and shyt.
You wernt even exaggerating.. my parents house, bought brand new built, bay area, was around $22k in the early/mid 1970s ( I wanna say 1973/1974), let alone the 60s.. My mom was a banker in Vallejo at the time, her yearly salary was $6k and that was considered good..
You could definitely find quality houses for $5-10k in the 1960s and my dad bought his at the time, 1 year old Chevy, for $400...
and this was the bay area.. still at the time more expensive than rest of the nation for the most part
Bumblefukk alabama you could probably find houses $2-5k
You dont even have to go back to the 1960's to see how cheap things were.. They had $1 movie theaters just in the 1990s... How much a movie cost today
$14-20 and shyt You get Soda and a pop corn its over $30 for 1 person

The economy like everything in America is basically high priced from food, clothes, electricity/gas bill, cars (whether leased or owned), cable & satellite etc you name it.
Another thing is that people act like making $100k in yearly salary is living wealthy & "big ballin shot callin"
lol you can make $250k for one week playing & winning family fued if you get lucky.
In most states $100k is still near "poverty" level it's not even middle class take into account of that state's own economy system like unless you're deep into the hundred thousands you ain't rich either stop frontin
.
Damn near the whole Coli claims to be making "six figures" when in America alone most Americans don't even make that much or close to it unless you're in a certain field & with The Coli full of DuckTales
galore somebody's lying & living in fairy tales so many dudes on here struggling to get women yet make "six figures" .

Where do you wanna start?How about only 4 states have a minimal wage large enough to actually offered to live there?
Like, this is a class worth of reasons.
The system is broken, to put it bluntly.
Our economic system favors growth over sustainability, which allows the rich to get richer and makes upward mobility harder.
We don't live in a meritocracy, and it is very possible (and increasingly, very likely) that you can work hard your entire life and not succeed or be wealthy.

Manufacturing left the country.Cheap labor is imported from other countries.
And education does not prepare kids for stem. (Stem will dry up soon too)
Elon musk and Jack Ma openly talking about 80 -120 hours per work week While big employers like walmart want to pay so little that employees have to get welfare.
Corporations dont want to pay Americans fairly, they want slaves lol.

fukktard shyt.
He has a point though. Man created this current system and we can see some people are getting the short end of the stick. I believe the heart of man is inherently flawed. I mean look at all the wars that have been fought since the beginning of time. Look at slavery, look at any ill committed today.
Anyway, not tryna derail this thread (which is excellent, we gotta start asking these questions and getting people to wake up to financial literacy)

Can't Change My Damn Avi :beli:
"God" created man tho...
But man deviated from the original plan and God let man go his own way. Here we are today
But you'd have to agree with the initial premise to follow the argument. Some people don't believe/acknowledge the premise

People ain't got no certs, it's just that simple
The lack of skills that the average American has is alarming
We abandoned the industrial revolution and manufacturing base we once had. Our economy now focuses on Entertainment and Social Media, which is an embarrassment
