[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 3758539, member: 56035"] i dont necessarily trust this author or NPR. note they are just talking about earnings, theyre not talking about inflated mortgages, rents, taxes, etc: People born in the 1940s or '50s were virtually guaranteed to achieve the American dream of earning more than your parents did, Chetty says. But that's not the case anymore.
