That’s clearly exemplifies a significant problem in society

Same with my parents and my grandparents and great grandparents... My greatgrandparents packed up everything they owned in oklahoma during the great depression and moved halfway across the country on a whim, to go work in a copper mine in southern arizona..the same town i live in now, and both sides of my family are from there. this was obviously long before the interstate system was invented. I sometimes wonder what that trip was like and what made them want to do that out of all the places in this country to go to.
We had an old family friend that lived to be about 105 years old Passed away in 2007 or somewhere around that time, and she would tell stories about her family migrating out west in a covered wagon.. when i hear our generation talk about how they have it so hard, i think they have no idea what life used to be like before all the luxuries we have now... But its easy to sit around and complain about everything while you have indoor plumbing, running water and a smartphone in the hand at all times.. some people need to pick up a history book every once in awhile
