      9/ Yes, in 1950 it was possible to trip over a turd and end up in a decent paying union job. ...which would let you own a very small 2 bedroom cape on a 1/20th acre lot in a Levittown, and share 1 small often-breaking car with your wife. People confuse Brady Bunch w reality.

      12/ It's still possible. Folks just don't want to make the sacrifices. Your grand dad worked long hours at a hard job. Become a plumber, or a garbage man. Buy a house 90 minutes outside the cool places. Where I live 3 bedrooms cost ~ $200k. Done.https://twitter.com/BlackLodgeAgent/status/1108825846079459333 …

      These bozos are *lucky* they're not begging to go down in the mine, or having to pour steel, or running an adding machine in a room of 1000 adding machines, or building houses with hand tools. Putting bread on the table has *always* been work, and mostly hard work.

          30/ I don't think that 100% of people who succeed do so by hard work. I don't think 100% of people who fail do so because of laziness. But it is ALWAYS the case that, given a set of circumstances, hard work does better than laziness.

          39/ The problem with intertemporal comparisons is that EVERYTHING IS DIFFERENT. In 1950, there was a big central hump inthe bell curve. In 2019, there's not. In 1950 college cost X ... but wasn't necessary. In 2019 it costs 10 x ... but still isn't really necessary.

          41/ Exactly how am I out of touch? Be telling NEETS who just want UBI that they can actually be quite successful and own their own homes if they just stop bitching about the Boomers and instead become garbagemen or welders? How is that out of touch? https://twitter.com/PenceElectric/status/1108844624037195776 …

          42/ Agreed! Today you can't get a factory job with a pension (although, honestly, I bet most NEETs couldn't do 1 week of standing at a drill press for a 9 hour shift), but you can work from home editing ebooks for your friend in Chile. It's DIFFERENT.https://twitter.com/RoccamSoccam/status/1108846533057937413 …

          I'm reminded of the quote "The past is a foreign country: they do things differently there." by L.P. Hartley. It wasn't just that everything was the same but this one thing, EVERYTHING was different. Their perceptions of the different things were even different.

          43/ let's be honest with each other: (1) you couldn't rebut my argument re whiny NEETs so you changed the topic (2) it's bigger than most family farms during America's frontier period (3) I get more than half my family's food from it, so it's big enoughhttps://twitter.com/D_R_Ball/status/1108908453773205506?s=19 …

          Let’s be honest with each other; 50 acres isn’t a farm, it’s a large garden.

          44/ circling back to this: In 1850 we had pioneers moving west, owning just a hatchet, a knife, one set of clothing, and maybe a whetstone. Find some land, spend all summer working 20 hrs/week on a neighboring farm for food, another 40 hrs girdling trees on your own land.

          45/ All winter long you're splitting wood for your neighbor, 20+ hours per week, in return for corn mush with an occassional bit of bacon, and cutting down the dead trees on your own land. Big fires, night and day, to clear the wood. Next spring, keep working for neighbors >

          46/ in return for borrowing their ox and plow. Plow your land, between and around the tree stumps. Use some of your carefully horded coins to buy seed corn. Plant it. Move out of neighbor's barn and build a sod hut. Weed the corn by hand, with a hoe, for 60 hrs/week.

          47/ Start digging a well. By hand. ...But keep working at neighbor's farm in payment for the use of his pick and shovel, and his occasional help. Haul stones on a travois to line the well you're digging. You collapse into your sod hut every night after 12+ hours of hard work.

          48/ You're 18 months in. Corn is coming up. Corn worms got half of it, but you still clear $20 selling it to the general store - and keep enough to get you through the winter, and plant in spring. Teeth are getting a bit loose bc of nutritional problems. Blacksmith pulls 2.

          49/ Another winter spent splitting wood for neighbors for pay, and sawing wood to make your own house. That $20 is mostly gone: bought a saw, a pail, a froe, some candles, 10 lbs of nails. Spring comes. Rent the ox and plow again. $20 all gone. Plant your seed corn.
