Which would point out it was harder then. Sure, there's more competition now, but just since there are (proportionately, specially) more people with 3rd degree education, having this much instruction isn't that much of an achievement.

Past:

-Harder to get to the university;
-More jobs for low degree graduates;
-Low degree graduates gained proportionally more money than today;
-Life costs = ridiculously low compared with today's.

Now:

-Any halfwit can pass the vestibular for some courses, but being admitted in Medicine, Mechanical Engineering or Automation is very hard (you'll not earn good salaries if you're a graduate in Social Sciences, anyway);
-Low degree graduates need to continue study for more 4/5 years to earn some high end jobs (or be innovative, by the way, but it holds for past generations too);
-Low degree graduates earn **** as payment today;
-Life costs = way higher than ever.

See, I still think a poor dude nowadays is more ****ed than before.

But everything depends hardly on the situation, so then let me reinforce that I don't disagree with you either.

Precisely because everyone and their dog can become a medic now.

That's because less people are bare-foot poor today.

P.S.: You're ninja'd-ing me all the time with your edits, dammit 

It has always been an expensive pastime to be poor.


The difference is that it became more likely to degrade socially as a middle class person during the last twenty years. This is causing unrest and can lead into severe states of disorder in developped countries. Mind Hellas.

It's alright. You're one of the cool ones.

Unrest, yes. Full-on uprising using guns? Unlikely.

My uncle and his wife are quite well off upper middle class and while they are not bad people they are rather snobbish and I don't remember the last time they even wished me a happy birthday, little alone sent a card or a present. Thankfully my cousins are much less snobbish and they all take very good care of my Grandma. They did work for their money at least too.

This but the other way around, my aunt and uncle aren't snobbish at all and usually end up helping in anyway they can, where as my cousins are extreme douches who now rely on my aunt and uncle because they chose not to go to college and now work at Dairy Queen.
