survive anymore? With low wages and high priced housing, rental, car insurance, health insurance (if you are lucky enough to have that), raising kids. Why is it like this now? My father-in-law retired 20 years ago making $8.00 an hour and had a mortgage of $125.00. Now the pay is about the same but to rent for a 2 bedroom, for instance (in our area), it's about $1,200.00 a month. Yet, the older generation (way retired persons I mean) do not understand why we have a rough time. How did we get to this point?
