Capitalism and its Mental Deficiencies, Diseases and Dejection By David Gottfried In most of human history, poor people did not disparage themselves because they were poor. They knew they were poor because their fathers were poor, and one’s station in life was determined at birth: One did not rise above, or fall below, one’s parents.
I enjoyed this essay. Interesting fact about longevity of the affluent.
I asked my father when I was in my early 20's what he wanted from life. He said he wanted my brother and myself to live a better life than he and mom. We were solidly middle class growing up.
I can say that had a lot of impact on my aspirations and maturity when I reflected on his answer about 10 years after I asked him that.✌️
