Better pay in the 70s/80s

I don't know why everyone always singles out trucking when this topic comes up.

Purchasing power has declined across most segments of society, except the elite.

 

We are no longer participating in the fruits of our labor. This is the ONLY graph you need.

 

And the truck stop women were absolutely HOT, the food was better, trucks were better, dope was better, the whole country was a better place.

Let's take that stroll down memory lane now.

 

OK, I'll bite.
1. Wouldn't know about TS women. Why settle for hamburger when you filet mignon at home.
2. The food was better, hands down, although I did get food poisoning on the road twice.
3. Trucks were not better, that was easy.
4. Never did dope then or now, couldn't tell you. Ask Tim Leary, aw shucks he's gone now.
5. The country was a much better place, depending where you lived of course, South Bronx, ah, probably not.

OK, your turn....

 

There is just so much I want to say but can’t.

 

This video explains / captures everything. And it's 100% true. In fact, it's a documentary.

 

*Snort* lol

 

I wouldn't shorten truck stop women as ts women. Also don't Google TS women

 

Also notice their weapons are better. One has a 357 Python and the other a pump action 12 gauge. No whimsy auto loaders like some of our posters use.
