There was a time when people were earning $1.25 an hour paid in silver dollars and silver quarters. Now that would be about $35/hour. So what kind of isht would the boomers be talking about this. Also, houses cost about $9,000 to buy, new (built with good wood, too). Johnson and Nixon took us into pure fiat, not really the boomers, they were “The Great Generaton” weren’t they?
