Excerpt from "The growth of suburbia" article. Includes EXPLANATION widget only (link to explanation titled Notes and attributions).

What do you think?

Are the GI Bill benefits that financed suburban housing similar to New Deal programs, or different from them? Why?

Do you think the assembly-line techniques used to build Levittown houses were a positive or negative development overall? Consider the impact on construction workers, families, and prices.

Why do you think so many Americans wanted to move into their own homes after World War II? Was it due to financial reasons, messages in popular culture, or something else?

The assembly-line techniques were net positive in my opinion. Leading to cheaper homes for buyers. It might negatively affect construction workers in that work could be done with less skilled laborers, but that improves the lot of the less skilled laborers. Wouldn't any technological process, be a negative to someone who was used to doing it a different way?

Testing with a Facebook SSO account, and just reached 5000 energy points. This seems to be viable as well. Maybe there is another SSO that doesn't work?
