Americans are increasingly unlikely to believe that those who work hard will get ahead and that their children will be better off than they are, according to two recent polls.

I disagree, back in the 60s it was totally possible to find a decent paying job, have a couple of kids, buy a house to store them in, get a new car every few years, send your kids off to school, go on vacations and retire at an age old enough to enjoy some time with the grandkids. Now that really isn’t a reality for the average person.
When my dad bought a house in LA during the 70s, his car cost more than the house.
However, the car died after 2 years which apparently was normal. He then drove a 1977 Ford Ranger up north and that thing would barely start, ever.
