So there is a causal relationship between the Detroit riots of 1967 and the "Summer of Love" in San Francisco?
Bare in mind that I'm not meaning this as any type attack on women,,but
In the 60's a man worked and on his wages (alone) he made enough money to buy a house,a new car a boat ect. Companies competed with each other for employees by offering retirement,good insurance(dental,optical ect.) and most had money in savings after paying their bills. Women for the most part were "stay at home Moms" watching their children and teaching them morals,family structure ect.(the most important role in my opinion). As time went on the abilities of only "one person" being able to provide financial security for an family was considered by the companies and as it seems the US underwent an "paradigm shift".
The shift of thinking came by a promise of "equal rights"(both race and sex). At first it seemed to be beneficial(a good thing) but if you examine the outcome of this their intention was never to "raise" the rights of women or minority races up to the standard of living and rights of an man but to flood the market with additional workers and reduce the benefits and pay they were giving one man.
So now this is many years later and men and women of every race have equal rights but whats the outcome? If you notice now(today) both an husband and wife work to try to buy an house and cars ect.(used to only take the one) but most cannot make enough money to buy a house or have extra money for savings at the end of the month. Most families now have both the husband and wife working but it's a struggle to pay notes on a home and buy food or get health insurance when one family members wages used to be enough to do this.
It's apparent that they actually never had the rights of a women in their interest in a "better manner" but instead their intention was to take and double the available workers by adding women into the workplace. The outcome of this reduced all employees down to where the companies don't need to compete for full time employees and so they don't need to offer good insurance, retirement ect. to entice workers to work for them anymore.
Today we see in the stores "fast food" in boxes made especially for this that had their beginnings during the sexual revolution such as frozen pizza,TV dinners or pre-prepared meals because they know that if both husband and wife worked they would be too tired to come home and cook.
Anyway though I don't mean this in any way a belittlement to women it's that I lived before and after the paradigm shift in this and so I think that they(the system) tricked everyone by saying "equal rights" and instead of women's rights going up they meant equal to mean "low wages for everyone". If not and a man could pay for a new home,a car a boat and have a good retirement then and they actually raised anything then today we would have twice that standard instead of half. I always misspell stuff(lol) pardon me if I did,sorry for such a long post.
