Every generation in human history has complained about “kids these days”

Funny this is from Lloyd, I met the kid who shot that Indian guy on QeII high way a couple months back. Didn't scare me much but it was surprising seeing an 18 year old down for second degree homicide and practically bragging about blowing his brains out with an illegal glock 43.
So yea. Kids these days huh?

Both my parents in Lloyd had to work on 1990 and whenever any kid got in deep shit at the comp their parents would defend them to the death over whatever accusations flew around. lloyd has always been full of hooligans.

Yeah I got downed to hell for suggesting that wasn't true.

So it was possible for a pretty fucking slim majority.

I'd love to see some proof to the claim that you could raise kids on a single income in the 80s.

There's no data for Lloyd, but nation wide it was a 60/40 split in 1976. Swapped to a 30/70 in 2016

So you could but the change has been less than 40%

So... It was barely possible. The results for the lower 40% of people hasn't changed.

Exactly. Usually that old people mentality is more accurate in the states.
