But an eternally silly statement, even within the your worldview that seems to only consist of the us! The minimal wage in ‘80s was 3.35$, the price of a big max was .15$! So from one hours of working you could buy 21! 20-fucking-1 big macs. In 1990 the minimal wage climbed to 3.80$ and the price of the big mac went up to 2.45$!!! Your living standards nosedived in the 80s!!!
By the end of the red menace (USSR fell apart) your government had absolutely no reason to provide your wellbeing, after all its really not democratic by any standard and it didn’t have to worry about a communist uprising anymore
*In the us, you mean?
