thread 1/1
America used to be a place where one person with a high school education could buy a home, buy a new car, raise a family, take them on vacation every year, send the kids to college with no loans, & retire comfortably at age 65.

Then Ronald Reagan came along and destroyed it all.

If you were white, yes.

But yes, Reagan took an axe to a system that only needed to be made a just one for BBIMPs, women, the disabled, and LGBTQ+ people to work completely. Dems have got to be conscientious about rebuilding it so it works for all of us.

Reagan cast the full population against Black people. His moves wiped out generations of our ppl. This is way deeper than “the middle class”. He jailed our men. He broke up our households. He made redlining and other illegal practices go unchecked. He did ALL he could to demolish our families units.

In truth it was that way only for a few decades, and only for white people. Before WW2, we had some pretty tough times. The “middle class” became dominant only after that

I hate to say it but I honestly believe sky rocketing house prices lulled the older generation into thinking everything was fine because their retirements were taken care of, not realizing the real benefit was to landlords owning multiple houses and it was inter generational economic warfare.

Nixon started taking that dream away long before Reagan. He turned the non-profit health insurance industry, which was cheap & affordable, into a for-profit, publicly traded commodity. The was the first nain in the coffin.
