Just further evidence that their plan has been in place for decades. When I got married in 1981, mortgage rates were 15%. It took 2 full-time incomes to qualify for a loan. I remember wondering then what had happened to change our way of life here in a short time, where it took two incomes to be able to manage massive increases in the prices of houses, cars and goods. I was 23 years old, and couldn't quite put my finger on it then.
