Back in 1960, America's per-capita GDP was about $3,000 but now it's over $30,000, which is more than a 10-fold increase.

Back in the '50s and '60s, a single "breadwinner" could support a family in a lifestyle that now requires multi-income sources for many American families to obtain.

I guess you never heard of the double-digit inflation we suffered during the '70s and '80s.

America has the highest standard of living in the world. If you don't believe it, you can always move to Africa or France.
