I was born in 1961. I really miss the simplicity of life then. We really appreciated the little we had. My Dad worked 2 jobs and my Mom stayed home and took care of me and my 3 brothers. There were problems then, but life overall was happy, content, and minimalist. We had a wall mounted kitchen phone with a party line. You had to speak into the receiver and nicely tell the other people talking that shared your line that you needed to make a phone call. My Mom made a lot of our clothes. My cousins would send over clothes they had outgrown and we would get really excited seeing them. Every fall, school started in September, we got one pair of new shoes. Brown leather loafers, usually Buster Brown brand. I used to put my next to the bed and lean over at look at them everynight before school started. We were poor, but we were blessed. My parents and one brother are gone. How I wish I could go back 50 years and share dinner with everyone again. 😔

@@nathanjustus6659 that isn't the whole story though. Back then a little frugality could let you raise a family on a paycheck and still put money away for a vacation, or a car, or any other number of things. Nowadays you can be even more frugal than that, but a single average income still isn't enough to afford even a small house (and forget about a family, let alone any of the other things I mentioned). Average pay was just higher compared to the cost of living back then. That started to change in the 80s when people like Reagan and Thatcher managed to convince multiple generations of western society that if they only let private industry hoover up more and more and more of the wealth, it would totally, definitely, absolutely trickle back down. It's been four decades and counting, and we're still living with the consequences of that myth.

In the summer, we left our houses in the morning, and roamed the neighborhood all day long, without our parents having anything to worry about.

It was certainly a big change from the gilded era and decades of increasing financial inequality that led up to the Great Depression and WW2. The world depicted is the Bretton-Woods agreement era, where income was much better distributed through deliberate policy. It lasted up to about the Nixon era. It existed as a response to the threat of communism. The USA in particular was determined not to give their people any reason to be tempted to embrace it through experiencing anything like 'the grapes of wrath' again. This clip reflects that time. It was the year of Kennedy, the Berlin Wall, Project Mercury, ICBMs, the Domino Theory, the Bay of Pigs, the Cuban Crisis, and Duck and Cover. There was good reason to create an environment in which people felt free, secure, happy and optimistic, in spite of the existential threats. Potential risks (like the growing power and competition of the USSR) were turned into something positive, like "By the end of this decade, we will put a man on the moon and return him safely to earth". Sadly, since the 80s, we're gradually evolved back again to most wealth being held by a minority, while the majority can't afford to cover a $400 emergency. It is now much more characterised by a pessimistic view in which everything is a threat over which people have little control. Power is derived mostly from exploiting all sorts of fears and risks. That works best when there is a genuine core of truth in whatever nightmare is in vogue.

When I was very small I'd talk a great deal with elders who grew-up in the 1800's. Not city folk either; so a great many of them were even a century behind city life; the 'big' city, not town. Man the history I learned was so exciting; history long before movies. Life then was a world away from today. Washing, laundry, shopping, 'refrigeration' and cooking, school, travel, communication. And many people made thier own clothes. When the sewing machine came out, it was every bit as revolutionary as the automobile. OH and dating; intense romance was escaping to the summer shade of that old oak tree, to share some fresh baked corn bread, some closeness and a few looks and snickers. This whole idea is so bizarre to contemporary life. I guess I'm just kinda glad that those days mean as much to me as the 10 minute relationship of today. Kinda troublesome though; STD's, pregnancy, and an old flame that will tattoo your head with a steel bar. Were things worse, were they better, were they neither one - just different. Life, no matter what, may change, but it will forever cut both ways. Literally everything was very different. And the reason that things weren't so bad was frankly living WAS easier, living held to an altogether different meaning, practice, and experience. Plus, that's all anyone knew. If someone could be magically transported from our current living styles, and spend maybe just a single day in the world of your-own elders, even just, say, six or so generations behind you, when you did get back here, you'd probably be spending the next 365 days wrapped in bandages suffering from terminal culture-shock. I think people generally have trouble with change because it introduces a certain vulnerability, I think that a great deal of it is simply that. Well, maybe not simply.

+ddoyle11 The facts speak for them self. The average household income in the 1950s was $5000 per year and the average house cost $5000. So this meant that aggressive personal finance could enable even factory workers to own a home. Women had a choice of either staying at home with the child or fo out and work if they decided to do so. Credit cards were only considered short term credit such as one month and saving was considered normal practise. People were married in their 20 with children. By the 1960s this was the norm but there was one big problem looming that would increase taxes and that was welfare. Up to 50% of the taxes you pay today is for welfare. That is the reason why the higher tax rate has gone from 25% to 39%. Even the very poor pay taxes.

It is striking to me that the offspring of the same political cult that once declared blacks not fully human now say the same about the preborn.

How unusual that wives and mothers would be recognized in 1962. My mother did indeed control the family finances and managed to find room for a lot of extras such as a travel trailer for weekend trips She worked full time and kept everything going even when her mother and mother-in-law had to move in with us at the same time! I guess that's just what you did then. This whole video is such a trip down memory lane...How I wish things were the same today. I didn't realize how much my mother(and father) did for us. We did have it good, and probably the last generation who had a better lifestyle than their parents. The world was open to us...what did we really do to improve it? Thank's Mom and Dad---sorry kids.

+vintageceilingfans . Indeed, America at her best BEFORE the late 1960's The beginning of late 1960's when sex revolution. hippie cultures, homosexual revolution, radical feminist movement started, that how the decay of America started. Up to mid 1960's God was still greatly honored in our beloved USA. Men were men, Women were women. One-income household was more enough to build a middle class family back then. You earned what you got, back then. You put a good quality of workmanship to your job. The cars that were produced by the big three were the good ones, not like the junks that we see today. The movies were wholesome. God was not allowed to be mocked in the movie. Yes, the 1980's were better than today. But even the 1980's or even the 1970's, America was already in serious decay. As a naturalized US citizen, I love America with all my heart, but Americans are so eager to pave their own destruction. Americans are not willing to repeat what was working in the past, but they are so eager to follow any directions that will accelerate their decay such as: abortion, gay marriage, depending on government assistance, having out of wedlock babies, teaching the youngsters immorality by distributing condoms in the grade schools, mocking Christianity, glorifying liberal political correctness etc etc etc. America will NOT survive much longer, if its citizenry are so very eager to follow the roads of destruction. Any prosperity that America is still having now is a residual of the prosperity that was created by the previous generations, i.e.the generations of America before the late 1960's.

No social group or religion has brought down our country, it is our very own government that fails to represent the people. I'm glad we got out of this time period where everyone was asleep to government corruption and believed everything they read in the News Paper or heard on television. Everyone smoked a truck load of cigarettes, lead paint, every housewife drugged, segregated schools, mental patients inhumanely locked away in the funny farm; the middle class suburbs sucked! My grandfather lived in the city during this time period in a three family apartment and it was nothing like this. It was loud and dirty, strip clubs, ghettos, rivers filled with shit, drunks, beatniks, the mob; and the countryside again was totally different from what this film presents.
