My granny was a UK flapper, she also had her house converted from gas to electricity as a child and her entire school went on a trip to see a Zeppelin landing. A funny scenario she told me about: as an 18 year old flapper she was walked out the door in fishnets and a miniskirt to go to the jazz club. Her Victorian era mother shouted after her: "You're going to catch an awful cold dressed like that young lady!" My gran cheekily replied: "I'm not dressed like this to keep warm Ma!"

I'm 72 years old. In a couple of months I turn 73, I grew up with people all around me who lived through the 20's and their stories were amazing. My mother was born in 1911, and my father 1913. They spent their teen-age years growing up during the 20's. I think maybe the great depression was probably the thing that I heard about most often. The old automobiles, the fashions, even the politics were discussed openly in our household. My father held great admiration for President Harding, and often said President Coolidge and Hoover brought this great nation to its knees, and they single handedly almost brought about a second revolution. Having lived through both World Wars, my parents were a wealth of information. Amazing times were those Roaring 20's.

For some folks it's a great deal and they don't mind assembly work or it feeds their family, etc, but I look forward to a day when it's all automated but with everybody doing something else, not being jobless.

Instead we seem to have taken leaps backwards. Companies don’t care about employees. The bigger they are the worse they pay them and treat them-amazon, disney etc. They seem to value profits over people, encouraging slave like labor in order to make those at the top richer than God himself and that’s it.

I don't want to rain on anyone's 20s but this is an idealistic look at only a very small segment of American society. Industry was timing every task and putting impossible stress on workers. Credit began and set people up for the oncoming crash. Banks we're giving money away for everyone to invest in the stock market. That's what contributed to the whole collapse. Black people were moving North in droves for jobs and trying to get out of the Jim Crow south. Slumlords got fat from the sweat of African Americans. This video is a totally romantisized view. Just as long as you're awake of those facts enjoy the entertainment.

Henry Ford said, "You can buy a model T in any color you want as long as it's BLACK!" WHY! Because his assembly line was so successful that he had a hard time keeping up with demand so every model T built was black because black paint dried faster!

The elements of the time that made it roaring are absent from today's world and life's. As we now know the events of the time that created such fast growth in production output, sales, earnings and inflation eventually brought about the biggest economic crisis in history.

My Great Grandpa ran "Shine". He was based in N. OH. used to run "Shine" from TN to OH and MI. Got some neat old photos of him and his 'Souped Up" cars. Ended up he made enough $ to start up a Funeral Home. I guess he'd seen so much death during the Great Depression he figured Funerals where the next big money maker. That family business long gone but I've thought that after I'm seeing so many people "kick the bucket" after taking those experimental injections? Might be a good time to at least buy some property for a cemetery.

Ford paid high but expected high! She didn't mention the REASON the ModelT was only available in BLACK! That's because demand for the vehicle was so huge, black was the fastest drying paint available. Any other color would have slowed production. Cars were selling before they were built!!!

That's an urban legend that won't die. The reason he used black paint, was re-working the tons of left-over WWI nitro-cellulose gunpowders into nitro-cellulose lacquer. He was taking a worthless product and using it for something.
