People in the military move every three years. I know many who were at HP or IBM and worked at 4 or 5 sites, not settling until their kids were in HS or near retirement. These people probably arent getting fired. They’re flighty, pursuing t

Maybe a pre-middle class was created by Henry Ford. He wanted to create a car that his workers could afford. Also, maybe Sears with their Homes Catalog. It seems like the teens and twenties included some steps up Maslows hierarchy for some

I see the IAEA expressing concerns, I don’t see CNN or anyone in the USIC doing so. If they were loud and many, perhaps you can provide a link to a USIC member voicing concerns. Even those who were anonymously quoted about the aluminum tub
