I’m wondering if we can have a living standard we had back in the 1970’s.

As far as living standards go the 1970s was the peak of America. It has been stagnate to downhill ever since. In order to get back to that we would have to fix the marriage problem where instead of two people combining incomes and expenses, we now have two divorced adults living in two separate locations with two separate expenses, and keeping incomes apart. Plus we would have to go back to having high wage jobs that can't be outsourced, and a better education system.
