My grandfather was considered a low-middle class man. I was having a conversation about this with my mom yesterday. He was the only member of the house that worked. They owned a 2,000 square foot home, averaged two cars, had a lakefront beach home and a speed boat. He sent all of his children to college with no loans. All of this on the salary of a bread truck delivery driver. How have we become so fucked?
