I drove through western Pennsylvania in August of ‘69. The steel mills were running around the clock. May have been war related since Vietnam was still going on, who knows. Anyway the people had jobs and the cities were prosperous, the ruin had yet to come. But according to our global trade friends we are all better off now.
I know. It’s more of the same garbage we keep getting out of D.C.
I have no income and it’s been very, very rough since Bam-Bam took office.
But hey, I can get a cheap dishrag at Wal-Mart. If I can find enough change in a parking lot.
