Believe it or not, there actually was a time in this country where a milkman or janitor could support an entire family on that one income.

Although I didn't grow up in the '50s, my dad taught at a junior college and was able to build a house and send his kids to college out of state, paying out-of-state tuition. NO ONE can do that now. NO ONE.

Right now, my wife and I are BOTH contemplating second jobs (which I've already done, hated, and will probably have to go back to). We don't even have any kids. It's just what we have to do to survive.

George Walker Bush is trying as hard as possible to turn this country into a nation of struggling, scramble-for-every-scrap-of-food slaves, in a short a time as possible. It's amazing how well he's succeeding. But, then, he has a lot of help.
