When I was a kid minumem wage was a buck 45 if I remember. I've had a job since I was 12

The 90's and the 00's were basically heaven on Earth:

-girls sooooooo friendly all you had to do was go to a CD store like HMV and girls would walk up and talk to you

-could go to clubs and meet hot chicks who actually would mob you in groups

-$2 beers, $10 buckets of 6 coronas in the 00's

-random strangers could hand you pills or coke and you could pop them back and do any line and nobody died or OD'ed ( okay idiots who popped 6 caps of e at once did OD )

-job right out of school in the 00's could pay for your rent, new mustang, money for latest computer parts, trips to mexico every winter, and still money left over for dates, clothes, and road trips in summer

-nobody gave a FUCK about politics!

Who noticed that patchouli (very popular in the 70s) has 2 kind of smells?

One is more pleasant than the other

I may get in trouble for saying this but things changed during the 80's when homes along with cost of living went up and no longer was there a single source of income - now the wife had to work. Having a 2 income family not only broke apart families but now kids after school were not monitored by a parent so they could do anything they wanted such as taking their gf or bf home and having sex. Birth rates went up - kids had nothing to do with their time so they got into trouble because parents weren't around.

Women's rights were now pushing for more equality and ability to look after themselves without someone else. In short - the family unit was being torn apart during that time.


Yeah, in the 70's married women got the right to get a mortgage without their husband's permission and that clearly ended the family unit. /sarcasm

To some extent, as politics makes strange bedfellows, I think some people pushing for women's rights just hated the family unit, but that doesn't mean it is better if the only option is barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen and under a man's rule.

From an economic standpoint, the 70's were when credit cards first started being popularized, which added massive amounts of currency to the economy. Which, ya know, causes inflation.

Lot of great music that decade and I enjoyed being allowed to play outside.

That pic looks great, but it looks 90's to me. What makes it seem like it could be 70s?

The VA program did not exclude. It was the bankers and the developers that excluded. For example, in the town I grew up in you could not buy a house unless you were white Christians. That was the rules Levitt set in 1949 or 1950 for buyers of the homes. In reality, by 1960 there were Protestants, Catholics and Jews living in Levittown, mainly because you can't tell a Jew from a Christian by just looking.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levittown,_New_York




The houses he built originally sold for around $8,000. But with the GI bill and such you could get into one for about $400 (5%).


From what you just posted there, it was not the bankers and developers as much as it was the government. If a developer had an acknowledged "mixed" community, home buyers could not get an FHA loan and FHA loans are all regulation BS because there is no risk to the bank, so the bank does not care who the loan is for. FHA being an obstacle means the problem was at the Federal level, just like a lot of modern mortgage discrimination with things like Operation Choke Point or even it simply being harder for the self-employed to buy a home than for people with W2 jobs.

as a canuck I only know about this cuz it was part of a high school project I did on housing discrimination in North America. was trying to not get too political here by stating that Black vets were in large part locked out of it. even though it's historical fact and shouldn't be 'political'. these days though?

but yeah, the VA was def not to blame *tips cap


Not the VA program, the impact of the FHA program on potential recipients of VA loans. Still a bad governance problem.

The pic is really from the 70's when hippy look was at its top probably due to the big success of 1969' woodstock festival.
