In about 54 or so years we went from a nation where a single blue collar salary was not only sufficient to raise a family but also look forward to a comfortable retirement and a vacation every year. We went to it taking 2 salaries and then 2 salaries and a mountain of debt. It is now far more important to be able to buy a 3 pack of Tee Shirts made in Bangladesh of Indian cotton for $10 instead of the same 3 pack of shirts made in West Point Georgia from cotton grown in Mississippi for $14. That $4 is nice but the true cost is faaarrrrr more than that. Not only have we seen where this leads we are no convinced that paying $6 for a Big Mac instead of $4.50 due to an increase in production costs related to labor is just too much to take. A heaping pile of our financial angst and worry stems from within...we are all in on saving on cheap foreign imports but god forbid our neighbor earn a living.

Pretty amazing under W, Obama, and Trump I was able to secure much better financing rates for new vehicles while at the same time having worse credit than I do now.
