People say that but it is so untrue. Homes are much bigger than they were in the 1950's. Families have air conditioning, multiple vehicles, food is much cheaper now than before. Many more Americans are graduating high school and attending college. They have huge technological gains.
You might have thought you were better off before Reagan, but no one wants to go back to that time when women had few choices in careers.
Thomas Sowell: There are no solutions, just trade-offs.
And, ironically, the trade classes that most public schools abandoned in the post-Reagan era are now starting to find a foothold again as the trades are once again being presented as a viable alternative to a college degree due to the shortage of skilled workers in those fields.
When I was at EHS there was a building trades class, an automotive trades class, woodworking classes, mechanical drawing classes . . . and all of them disappeared by the time my kid brother graduated 9 years after I had. Another casualty of the federal Department of Education mission and mandates.

The problem you anti-Trump leftists have is that you can’t show any examples of Democrat progress that helps Americans. You had 12 years…. Trump is on year 5.
Nothing? Not one accomplishment in 12 years?
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
Well, there is the (un)Affordable Care Act that Democrats view as an accomplishment rather than an accelerator on the cost and quality of health care. And, true to form, they say it is failing because we aren't spending enough to subsidize it yet . . .
25% unemployment rate for college graduates.
Why?
Useless degrees?
Colleges are not educating students properly?
AI taking away typical first jobs?
Grads unwilling to "settle" for opportunities being offered?

Hotter temperatures and a series of droughts in what is now Pakistan and India fragmented one of the world’s major early civilisations, providing a "warning shot" for today
Actually the current trend predicts a new Ice Age is coming. The Gulf Stream will stop going to Europe so glaciers will return to London and Berlin. Thanks China and India!
