The following are some comments made in the year 1957: (1) "I'll tell you one thing. If things keep going the way they are, it's going to be impossible to buy a weeks groceries for $20." (2) "Have you seen the new cars coming out next year? It won't be long until $5000. will only buy a used one." (3) "If cigarettes keep going up in price, I'm going to quit. A quarter a pack is ridiculous." (4) "Did you hear the post office is thinking about charging a dime just to mail a letter?" (5) "If they raise the minimum wage to $1, nobody will be able to hire outside help at the store." (6) "When I first started driving, who would have thought gas would some day cost 29 cents a gallon? Guess we'd be better off leaving the car in the garage." (7) "Kids today are impossible. Those duck tail hair cuts make it impossible to stay groomed. Next thing you know, boys will be wearing their hair as long as girls." (8) "I'm afraid to send my kids to movies any more. Ever since they let Clark Gable get by with saying 'damn' in 'Gone With the Wind,' it seems every new movie has either 'hell' or 'damn' in it. (9) "I read the other day where some scientists think it's possible to put a man on the moon by the end of the century. They even have some fellows they call astronauts preparing for it down in Texas." (10) "Did you see where some baseball player just signed a contract for $75,000 a year just to play ball? It wouldn't surprise me if some day they'll be making more than the president." (11) "I never thought I'd see the day all our kitchen appliances would be electric. They're even making electric typewriters now." (12) "It's too bad things are so tough nowadays. I see where a few married women are having to work to make ends meet. It won't be long before young couples are going to have to hire someone to watch their kids so they can both work." (13) "I'm just afraid the Volkswagen car is going to open the door to a whole lot of foreign business." (14) "Thank goodness I won't live to see the day when the government takes half our income in taxes. I some times wonder if we are electing the best people to congress." (15) "A drive-in restaurant is convenient in nice weather, but I seriously doubt they will ever catch on." (16) "There is no sense going to Lincoln or Omaha anymore for a weekend. It costs nearly $15. a night to stay in a hotel." (17 "No one can afford to be sick any more. $35 a day in the hospital is too rich for my blood." (18) "If they think I'll pay 50 cents for a hair cut, forget it."
