When the American Dream Became a Mirage
Something broke in America around 1980, and we're still living in the wreckage. Picture the postwar era: a factory worker could buy a home, send kids to college, and retire comfortably. That worker's grandchildren today? They're drowning in student debt, priced out of housing markets, and wondering if retirement is just a cruel joke their parents got to enjoy. This isn't about nostalgia-it's about a fundamental rewiring of our economic operating system. In the 1980s, we embraced a new religion called shareholder capitalism, where maximizing stock price became the only commandment that mattered. Milton Friedman was its prophet, declaring that executives who considered anything beyond share price were thieves and socialists. Reagan slashed top tax rates from 70% to 28%, tripled the national debt, and promised wealth would "trickle down." It didn't. Instead, we got crumbling infrastructure, gutted mental healthcare, and a productivity-compensation split that would define generations. From 1973 to 2014, productivity grew 72% while worker pay rose just 9%. America kept getting richer, but workers stopped sharing in the prosperity they created.
