That was almost before my time too and I was born in 1959. Around that time the industrial sector began requiring more and more education and people were more motivated to go to school for longer periods. Also about that time, because of the bolstered economy after the war, prices started going up and inflation really took hold.
Now having a college degree doesn’t even guarantee you’ll make enough to afford a one-bedroom apartment. There is something out of whack about that. I don’t know how people in upcoming generations will even be able to afford to buy food, let alone to have a roof over their heads. And it isn’t any one president at fault for it, it’s been going on since I was a kid, and that was decades ago.
