It's a much better place to live now than it was 50 years ago.
Sure, we were still a steel-producing town in the Seventies, but the air was dirty, the rivers were polluted, and all our eggs were in one basket. When Reagan came, we lost steel and were flat on our asses for a decade.
But if you're one of those guys who longs for the day when a high school dropout could land a job paying the equivalent of $80K in today's money and didn't mind the poisonous air, poisoned water, and the sheer shittiness of those jobs, then you might disagree.
And that's the whole point. There were no better simpler times. Too many people think Leave It To Beaver is a documentary series.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
