Funny how these threads always go the same way. Suddenly haters appear and hate on the 50's by being racist, or at least pretending to be.

Yup, that's what happens when every other country has there industrial base destroyed, leaving the US with good paying working class jobs due to said countries relying on you for the manufacturing. Plus having subsidized housing with cheap loans making life so much easier.

It did have things going for it, but plenty of bad too.
>lack of creature comforts we take for granted like air conditioning, personal computers, cell phones, etc
>extreme pressure for conformity, heavy handed pressure to get married and start families which is not something everybody wants or will be happy with, impossible to live openly if you're gay
>institutionalized and legal racism through jim crow in the south, things aren't much better for black people elsewhere, major race riots start in the mid 50's
>rabid paranoia during the height of the red scare, many teachers had their careers ruined for refusing to take loyalty oaths
>fear of nuclear annihilation, the Korean war
>over 20% of Americans were consistently living below the poverty line throughout the decade

The race issue especially was a very serious problem. Note the political cartoon here. Did you know that president Eisenhower was frequently criticized for failure to provide leadership on domestic problems? For instance his lack of support for the Supreme Court's 1954 ruling for desegregation, Brown v. Board of Education. Eisenhower said we all have opinions and lamented that "you can't change the hearts of men by laws." That leadership vacuum persisted long after the Court's ruling, which allowed time for the organization of White Citizens councils, of "massive resistance" and confrontations that continued well into the sixties.
