  • Pls don’t be a tittertale cuck and look up what a financial crisis is! Neither the housing crisis, nor minimal wage not following inflation necessarily continuated, nor possibly exacerbated by a financial crisis

    Also while your ever tiny world is only compromised of the us, in the rest of the world the housing crisis is not nearly as severe and their living standards are either stagnating or increasing with very-very few exceptions



  • *In the us, you mean?

    But an eternally silly statement, even within the your worldview that seems to only consist of the us! The minimal wage in ‘80s was 3.35$, the price of a big max was .15$! So from one hours of working you could buy 21! 20-fucking-1 big macs. In 1990 the minimal wage climbed to 3.80$ and the price of the big mac went up to 2.45$!!! Your living standards nosedived in the 80s!!!

    By the end of the red menace (USSR fell apart) your government had absolutely no reason to provide your wellbeing, after all its really not democratic by any standard and it didn’t have to worry about a communist uprising anymore
