mericans of all political stripes often point to the 1950s as a golden era for our economy.

After World War II and the Korean conflict, we were finally at peace, unemployment was extremely low,

between 2.5 and 5 percent, and America was the manufacturing king of a world decimated by war and clamoring for everything. Things were easier back then. Typically, only one member of a household worked, for 40 hours a week, and he (yes, he) brought home enough money for his family to prosper, grow and take an occasional vacation. It’s official life really was ‘better in the old days’, according to a new study. Half of adults over the age of 50 agree that life in the past was preferable to today, compared to just 19 per cent

who think the present day is best.

The study shows many over50s consider the old days to be better because people were more patient and there was a slower pace of life. People also fondly remember

the time when the whole family ate around the dinner table and everyone enjoyed face-to-face conversations.

For almost anyone over the age of 50, maybe even younger, these were special times at school, at college, getting married, having children or any other life event. Then, the music was better, the friendships were special and where you were living, what you were doing amounted to a pleasurable experience. We had Elvis, Hank Williams , Patsy Cline , Gladys Knight , Fats Domino , Little Richard The Temptations , Chuck Berry, Frank

However, jobs are only one component of the good old days. In the larger economic picture, the cost of health care was much lower back then, in real terms.

Average tariffs for the U.S. were near 10 percent in 1950, and near 1 percent today, effectively eliminating that barrier. Progress in robotics, mechanization and computing have eliminated a vast number of jobs and some industries, like coal mining, are simply disappearing as we advance to better and cheaper sources of energy.

This rising insurance cost, along with higher co-pays, eats deeply into our disposable income. Another factor chewing through our “extra” money is the rising percentage of tax that individuals pay, relative to corporations , “In 1952, the corporate income tax accounted for 33 percent of all federal tax revenue.

Today, despite record-breaking profits, corporate taxes bring in less than 9 percent.” Politifact found this statement “Mostly True.” In the 1950s, corporate income tax was 6 percent of the GDP and now it’s about 2 percent.

So, who fills in that tax gap? We, the workers of America, do. America’s large employers are achieving record profits and have trillions of dollars in cash on hand, so they invite you out to a fabulous dinner to celebrate and stiff you for the bill, every week.

Chargers Report: Mocking April’s NFL Art Garcia MilitaryPress Reporter With new head coach Brandon Staley finalizing his coaching staff, it’s time to look ahead to NFL Draft this April and focus on which direction the bolts will go in the first round.

son in the NFL, keeping Herbert upright and healthy is priority No. 1. With three starters along the offensive line unrestricted free agents (UFA’s) — Sam Tevi (OT), Forrest Lamp (OG) and Dan Feeney (C/G) — a definite upgrade is needed regardless if any of them resign or move on to another team.

Just as the quarterback position was their priority in the 2020 draft, most pundits believe general manager Tom Telesco will select an offensive lineman to protect the franchises’ most prized possession — quarterback Justin Herbert.

According to Over The Cap, the Chargers have the seventh-most cap space which they can use to re-sign a few of their own free agents or go after key free agents who will be available in the open market in March.

view a few of the top scouting evaluators to get their thoughts on the Chargers draft. Here is a look at the first mocks of NFL Media’s Daniel Jeremiah and ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr., both having the Chargers selecting an offensive tackle in round 1.

cleanest players in the draft,” Jeremiah wrote. “He’s played at a high level at both guard and tackle. The Chargers must address the offensive line this offseason.”

Kiper — Christian Darrisaw, OT, Virginia Tech.

Jeremiah — Alijah Vera-Tucker, OT, USC.

“With four straight wins to end the season, the Chargers likely moved themselves out of the Penei Sewell sweepstakes, but Darrisaw is a great

“Vera-Tucker is one of the most

consolation prize,” says Kiper. “He had a phenomenal 2020 season and could be quarterback Justin Herbert’s long-term blindside protector. Offensive line is one of L.A.’s top needs of the offseason, and it could add to the position in both free agency and the draft.

New coach Brandon Staley will get back safety Derwin James from injury, but this defensive line needs a boost, too. Keep an eye on risers between now and April.”

The Endzone: If Telesco does draft an offensive lineman in the first round it will be the first since he selected Alabama OT D.J. Fluker with the 11th

pick in the 2013 draft — his first year as general manager. Per Spotrac, the Chargers have $23,966.398 in cap space. With 17 UFA’s, tight end Hunter Henry should be the top in-house player to re-sign. Playing under the franchise tag this past season, Henry had a career-high 60 catches for 613 yards and four touchdowns. Gavin Borquez (Chargers Wire) believes Henry could command top market value for tight ends which would average $14-15 million per year. Spotrac numbers for Tevi, Feeney and Lamp in 2020 were $640,448; $932,908; and $1,666,730, respectfully.

JUST FORLAUGHS

OLD AGE

“Well then how much for a NY sirloin, with side of mashed potatoes and salad, and an entire cheesecake for desert?”

The Bartender reply’s “$5”.

You’re getting old when you don’t care where your spouse goes, just as long as you don’t have to go along.

The guy still amazed then orders everything and after he is done eating his meal then says “Wow, this place is amazing, I really wish I could meet the owner of this place”.

Statistics show that at the age of seventy, there are five women to every man. Isn’t that an ironic time for a guy to get those odds?

The bartender then says “Oh well, he’s upstairs in his office with my wife”.

By the time a man is wise enough to watch his step, he’s too old to go anywhere

The guy looks all confused then asks “What is he doing upstairs in his office with your wife?”

A man has reached middle age when he is cautioned to slow down by his doctor instead of by the police.

You know you’re into middle age when you realize that caution is the Only thing you care to exercise.

At my age, “getting a little action” means I don’t need to take a laxative.

Adam and Eve A Brit, a Frenchman and a Russian are viewing a painting of Adam and Eve frolicking in the Garden of Eden.

“Look at their reserve, their calm,” muses the Brit. “They must be British.”

Two old guys are sitting on a bench in front of a Miami Beach back clinic.

They see a stooped-over gentleman, cane in hand, hobbling into the clinic. Twenty minutes later, the guy comes out, walking straight and tall.

Bench guy says, “What, did they give you pills?”

“Nonsense,” the Frenchman disagrees. “They’re naked, and so beautiful. Clearly, they are French.”

“No”, says the patient.

“No clothes, no shelter,” the Russian points out, “they have only an apple to eat, and they’re being told this is paradise? They are Russian.

“Nope”, says the patient. “They gave me a longer cane.”

Chocking A dad walks into a market followed by his ten-year-old son.

The kid is spinning a 25-cent piece in the air and catching it between his teeth. As they walk through the market someone bumps into the boy at just the wrong moment and the coin goes straight into his mouth and lodges in his throat. He immediately starts choking and going blue in the face and Dad starts panicking, shouting and screaming for help.

A middle-aged, fairly unnoticeable man in a gray suit is sitting at a coffee bar in the market reading his newspaper and sipping a cup of coffee. At the sound of the commotion, he looks up, puts his coffee cup down on the saucer, neatly folds his newspaper and places it on the counter. He gets up from his seat and makes his unhurried way across the market.

Reaching the boy, the man carefully takes hold of the kid’s balls and squeezes gently but firmly.

After a few seconds the boy convulses violently and coughs up the 25-cent piece, which the man catches in his free hand.

10 January February1,1,2021 2021

“What,” says the second guy, “a massage?”

Grandpa and Grandma Grandpa and Grandma were sitting in their porch rockers watching the beautiful sunset and reminiscing about “the good old days,” when Grandma turned to Grandpa and said, “Honey, do you remember when we first started dating and you used to just casually reach over and take my hand?”

Grandpa looked over at her, a little tired but obligingly took her aged hand in his.

With a wry little smile, Grandma pressed a little farther, “Honey, do you remember how after we were engaged, you’d sometimes lean over and suddenly kiss me on the cheek?”

Grandpa a little tired and getting pissed leaned slowly toward Grandma and gave her a lingering kiss on her wrinkled cheek.

Growing bolder still, Grandma said, “Honey, do you remember how, after we were first married, you’d kind of nibble on my ear?” Grandpa slowly got up from his rocker and headed into the house. Alarmed, Grandma said, “Honey, where are you going?”

Grandpa replied, “To get my f…..g teeth.”

A BEER A guy walks into the bar of a restaurant and goes to the bartender and asks “how much for a beer?”

The bartender replies “$1”.

The customer completely amazed, orders a beer then asks the bartender

On her way home she stopped at a dress shop to look around.

As she was leaving, she said to the sales clerk, “I hope you don’t mind me asking, but how old do you think I am?”

“About 35,”he replied.

“I’m actually 47,” the woman said, feeling really happy.

After that she went into McDonald’s for lunch and asked the order taker the same question.

He replied, “Oh, you look about 29.”

“I am actually 47!” she said, feeling really good.

While standing at the bus stop she asked an old man the same question.

He replied, “I am 85 years old and my eyesight is going.

But when I was young there was a sure way of telling a woman’s age. If I put my hand up your skirt I will be able to tell your exact age.”

There was no one around, so the woman said, “What the hell?” and let him slip his hand up her skirt.

After feeling around for a while, the old man said, “OK, You are 47.”

Stunned, the woman said, “That was brilliant! How did you do that?”

The old man replied, “I was behind you in line at McDonald’s.”

PRISON A man escapes from prison where he has been for 15 years.

He breaks into a house to look for money and guns and finds a young couple in bed.

He orders the guy out of bed and ties him to a chair, while tying the girl to the bed he gets on top of her, kisses her neck, then gets up and goes into the bathroom.

While he’s in there, the husband tells his wife: “Listen, this guy’s an escaped convict, look at his clothes! He probably spent lots of time in jail and hasn’t seen a woman in years. I saw how he kissed your neck. If he wants s*x, don’t resist, don’t complain, do whatever he tells you. Satisfy him no matter how much he nauseates you. This guy is probably very dangerous. If he gets angry, he’ll k*ll us. Be strong, honey. I love you.”

A LADY A lady walks into a fancy jewellery store.

She browses around, spots a beautiful diamond bracelet and walks over to inspect it.

As she bends over to look more closely she inadvertently breaks wind.

Very embarrassed, she looks around nervously to see if anyone has noticed her little accident and prays that a sales person doesn’t pop up right now.

As she turns around, her worst nightmare materializes in the form of a salesman standing right behind her.

Cool as a cucumber and displaying complete professionalism, the salesman greets the lady with, “Good day, Madam How may we help you today?”

Very uncomfortably, but hoping that the salesman may not have been there at the time of her little “accident!” she asks, “Sir, what is the price of this lovely bracelet?”

He answers, “Madam, if you farted just looking at it, you’re going to sh#t when I tell you the price.”

TWINS A woman has twins, and gives them up for adoption. One goes to a family in Egypt and is named “Amal”. The other goes to a family in Spain, who name him “Juan”. Years later Juan sends a picture

of himself to his mother. Upon receiving the picture, she tells her husband that she wished she also had a picture of Amal. Her husband responds: “They’re twins. If you’ve seen Juan, you’ve seen Amal.”
