Wealthier?
To pynchon-l at sfu.ca


If, as Chris Stolz suggests, we are really wealthier now
than we were before the sixties, perhaps he would care to
explain why I and everybody I know is (and needs to be) a
member of a two-job family while we almost all grew up in a
one-job family.

I would suggest that the increased "wealth" we live with
today is an illusion to most Americans and, perhaps, an
insult to those not granted society's little advantages.
