The 1950s in the USA. A house, a car, children with mother at home. Development, construction of highways, low unemployment, cheap fuel, everyone can afford a house and a car, a baby boom, low crime, in the suburbs and provinces, people don't lock up their houses and cars. All this for 1 amount: the salary of a Ford factory worker. Everybody is white and civilized.

Who was so determined to destroy it?

Most of the developed world was too busy rebuilding to work in factories. Rich people didn't figur out how to ship jobs over to shit holes yet. It's always greedy rich people but the retards here will blame only rich jews.

Supply and demand is real and applies to labour and housing. Nixon fucked up by opening up trade with China. And Ronald Ragain fucked up with trickle down economics which is how repoblicans still operate to this day despite it's continouse and constent failures.

That's because it was at a certain point in the Capitalist system IE the beginning, the boom period post WW2. Now we are 70 years down the line and we can see that Capitalism is a failed degenerative system.
>Who was so determined to destroy it?
Capitalists. If people can have all of that on one normal salary they will stop working.

I'm not completely against what you're saying, but you have to remember that what was standard back then would be considered poverty-tier now. In the 1950's, the average sqft of a house was around 900 sqft, compared to now where it's around 2400 sqft (about 2.5x the size), meaning upper-middle class will have a house around 1200 sqft and lower-middle class will have a house around 600-700 sqft. Plus added amenities like a dishwasher, washer/dryer, central AC, better insulation, etc... Features like this weren't that common in the 1950's.

Yes, things are more expensive even after accounting for inflation, but the people who complain the most are just out of college but still want McMansion. Be honest, how many people will be happy with a 2 bed, 1 bath 700sft bungalow as their first house?
