Ah, the good old days of small business when a family could buy a house and live comfortably on the income of only one working parent. Maybe they're too young to remember how all that changed and who changed it.
The changes came in the 80s with Raygun's "trickle-down" neoliberal economics and predatory capitalist attitudes toward unions and working people (not quite slaves). Then the rise of globalization in the 80s led to offshoring jobs to poorer countries where those governments would essentially guarantee low wages and no labor demands or strikes.
It was the GQP that did all that. The U.S. electorate presumably just gave them even more power to continue down their predatory path. But it's not slavery so stop saying that! Slavery was abolished!
