Wall Street and corporate America fricked over the typical American family requiring both parents to work. Government and Elites are happy for Average joes to fight about left and right, guns and trannys, and woke vs conservative as long as they stay busy and don’t realize both sides are getting screwed

Preach brother. When and if working class America...and that includes anyone who has to work for money and does not have money working for them...ever come to realize this they aristocracy is in trouble. It probably ain't gonna happen...it has never happened in the history of man except for a few notable exceptions where a new aristocracy seized control in short order.
For most of our existence average people had little choice but to struggle mightily for their succor. Technology alleviated some of that struggle slowly and a select few with money and power had to find a way to keep the average person in a constant state of turmoil. Religion has been used, patriotism, racism...all have had their place keeping the masses in line with the interests of the ruling class. If we ever realize the minimum wage single parent flipping burgers at Mickey D'a, the owner of the Mickey D's and the brain surgeon have more in common with one another that they will ever have with the average politician or someone like Bill Gates the latter group will be in trouble. It is unlikely to happen because human nature is to pull the rope with you as you climb, paying attention to the hands reaching for it from below and ignoring the hand that holds it above...

We did it to ourselves, no on else to blame. We wanted more and more, our kids wanted more and more. We could easily still live like the 70s/80s, but our standard of living would be much lower. We would have our needs, but not our "Wants."
