Not hard, but it would take some time.

Been working a career full time since I was 19, baw.
I think taking out student loans to become a fricking teacher is absurd.

It's absolutely absurd to pretend that the housing conditions which so benefited past generations are still in place at present. The typical (white) blue-collar worker in 1965 could basically easily afford to buy a home (with a government-guaranteed mortgage) that wasn't very far from his place of low-skill employment. Good luck on that today.
That was mostly true for some baby boomers and earlier generations. A few things contributed to that going away. Women entering the workforce in larger numbers which created more 2 income households. Also, many manufacturing jobs that were plentiful in the 50s-60s moved overseas.
I do think that much of the younger generations wouldn't find the living conditions of your average blue collar worker in the 60's acceptable. They probably had one vehicle and lived in a 1400 sq ft house with a family of 5.

This is meaningless. If the younger generation was born back then, of course they'd find it was acceptable. Why should they change their living conditions because people in the past didn't have it as good?

Why? Teachers in many places make about the same as median income of college grads.

With no chance of upward mobility or substantial pay increases.

Right.
It's normal to have a lower standard of living when you graduate college than you did living with parents. That's a hard lesson for some.

Starting average salary is $36k. Average salary non starting is $56-58k.
Wow. Glad I put myself in all that debt!

I'd also say the school you got your teaching degree from is probably even less applicable than the median college grade with an actual productive major.
Teachers have value, I'm not arguing that, but I'd agree that taking out student loans for that degree can be pretty silly. $10k, eh not that bad. However, if much more than that, you are just being dumb.
