5. It is (and has been) the age of the Robber Barons
over the last few weeks I have been imagining just how different things could have been if with the rise of productivity over that time period we could have seen a equal (or even kinda close) rise in median wages. Things could have been so cool for me personally, but for a good portion of the middle class which would have in turn raised the standard of living for both lower class and those in the upper class as well (but, they are too damn greedy to share the wealth and instead just horde it).
