I spent my years growing up thinking I was middle class, and I WAS, and all my family was (Boomer here), but at almost the exact time that I got old enough to work (in the 70s), I was suddenly firmly in the working- to poor class. I always had to work two jobs just to have an apartment and pay my bills (including my student loan, of course, even though I had to leave college after only two years because the government aid program changed), and then along came Reagan, and things only got worse. Now I’m on Social Security, and if trump cuts it, like he says he will, I’ll be royally screwed. Well, at least the early to mid 70s were fun (as a hippie).
