Remember that 50 years ago you didn’t need a college degree (debt) to obtain an entry level job, the money that you spent was recycled into your community (not sent off to China (communist)by way of Wal Mart), your children would have been educated in the best school system in the world (now 19th, 55th in literacy), there were no speeding tickets, booming economy, the wealthy paid taxes, income equality existed(gini index was 55 now 75 now we mirror Russia, Mexico, Brazil).
