@SteveRoth And, right? How can we do more of that? The 1970s were an economic achievement buried in smug calumny as some catastrophe that must never be repeated. Catastrophe for whom? It was, we should acknowledge, also a catastrophe for people with fixed-ish incomes and little bargaining power by which to increase them. But the miseries of that cohort are paraded like “main street” as a fig leaf for “wall street”.
