[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's harder now than it used to be for folks with limited motivation, skills, and stamina. When it was easier to have a middle class lifestyle on a single salary, women who didn't want to work could get married and keep house (maybe not very well). Men could work in a factory or something else very structured and unchanging, with a simpler application process and less education needed. And they didn't have to do much around the house because their wife did it...and they didn't have to struggle to find a wife because women had fewer options (it was harder to be single or lesbian) and lower expectations for how men would act. So the folks who look like duds today still existed back then, but it was easier for them to appear functional.[/quote] +1 Very true [/quote]
