Hey, I grew up in the 50's in Northern Virgina (Falls Church, to be exact...) and within' a half a mile of me lived at least one General and Two Admirers... Also living there were several Senators and Representative... The point is that the entire Northern Virginia that I knew was basically 3 bedrorom houses (sometimes 4)... These were not big houses but this is wherte everyone in the D.C. area lived because it was what they could afford...

That's the operative "concept" here.... It was what they could afford...

Botttom line: Wealth since the 50's has shifted to a small percentage of people and their "subjects"....

But isn't that what this thread is all about???
