Went to work as a teamster in 1962, earned $2.96 hr, bought a 63 Impala SS 327, 4sp, in 64 got married and bought a 2 yr old 3 bedroom ranch on Long Island but today a kid would need at least $40 hr to match that but it seems that somehow for some strange reason no one ever noticed this inflation thing till now.
As for college, Germany has had free college for over a 100 years as do many other Countries but in America the Right Wing afraid of threat of an educated proletariat created the student debt crisis during the Reagan years. IMO Reagan is the one that owes you a 63 Vette!
