minus-squareDagwood222@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·6 months agoWhen Reagan came in , ‘middle class’ was still one job supporting a family of four. In those days, $1 million was a vast personal fortune. By the time Bush Sr. was out, middle class was two incomes to run the family, and $1 million was what a rich guy paid for a party.
