I would assume it would be alittle more conservative.\nchildren- three or so. \nIncome-enough to support a family,male should earn more than the female.\neducation-males and females both dhould go to college.\nHome-woman should be at home\nfree time- in front of the tube.\nmarital status- interesting. i would belive that they value a marriage sticking together more than anything and divorce is frowned on. IF you reach a certain age and arnt married, there are social consequences, esp.for the woman.

If politicians are counting on this, they had better start packing up their offices now.\n\nThe truth is, right now the population pyramid is shaped like a fat person, with the largest amount of adults in the middle.  These are the baby boomer generation.  As they age, and become the single largest voting bloc in the history of the US, a lot of trends will change.  Boomers, generally, are not satisfied with status quo, in comsuming or in politics.  This is going to severly change the landscape of economy and government for the next thirty years.\n\nI jusr read these other posts.  How about some facts to support your paranoia?  This whole fat lazy bit is growing old, and seems a bit too much like you are being fed your own filth and believing it.

In the 1950's (in the UK) people were told work hard and save, come the 21st century you'll have better lifestyles. Work less hours, retire early and have loads of spare time to enjoy life and be living in a Sci-Fi type future. People had great expectations.\nWell all that seems have gone pear shaped, as people are working longer hours, expected to retire later and now have very little time to enjoy their lives. \n21st century? More like the 1940's. And I can't see the future getting any better.\nSorry to be a sourpuss.

The 1950s in the United States of America were marked with a sharp rise in the economy for the first time in almost 30 years and return to the 1920s-type consumer society built on credit and boom-times, as well as the baby boom from returning GIs who went to college under the G.I. Bill and settled in suburban America. Most of the internal conflicts that had developed in earlier decades like women's rights, civil rights, imperialism, and war were relatively suppressed or neglected during this time as a world returning from the brink hoped to see a more consistent way of life as opposed to liberalism and radicalism of the 1930s and 1940s. The effect of suppressing social problems in the 50s would have a significant impact on the rest of the twentieth century.\n\nThe 1950s were also marked with a rapid rise in conflict with the United States and the Soviet Union that would heighten the Cold War to an unprecedented level which would include the Arms Race, Space Race, McCarthyism, and Korean War. Stalin's death in 1953 left an enormous impact in Eastern Europe that forced the Soviet Union to create more liberal policies internally and externally. The rise of Suburbia as well as the growing conflict with the East are the two generally accepted reasons for the conservative domination of this decade.

Do you mean compare and contrast between the 50s and 60s--or do you mean the 50s and 60s and today?\n\nI'll tell you one thing:  In the 50s through mid-60s, people knew in junior high school more than high school graduates know today.  School wasn't a place to play around and pick and choose what work they felt like doing - you did what you had to do to get that diploma (which most parents insisted on - since they may have not had the opportunity to graduate high school themselves).\n\nMost females in the 50s through mid-60s were not college bound - many took secretarial courses in high school, figured they would work for a while, and then get married and become mothers.\n\nWhen Women's Lib came to be (a bit later) more women went to college, more women wanted to have a profession (rather than just a job), and less women were content to become simply a housewife and mother.\n\nThe bad side of that, is that with both parents working more children felt free to join gangs, do drugs and drink, commit crimes, etc., because they were all alone - nearly all the time.

believe that we have degraded since the 50"s and early 60"s. think that is the last time America stood together on life issues. there was not family fall out like now. think people tried to do what was right even when it was hard. man tried to provide and make households survive while woman were trying to be thee best to be a mother not 100 different things and then a mother. (no way intended as a slam meaning trying to be a worker teacher home maker taxi driver sister daughter wife then mother is very hard. and not far back in the 50S most woman stayed at home and had the ability to be th mother they dreamed of. ) we treated our kids different as the future not as a necessity or interruption.

eveloution doesnt happen over 50 years. 200 years ago we were in america and we look the same except the jaw has shifted a little. do you really think 50 years is going to make a huge impact on the way we look?

You can find that sort of information on a government demographics webpage.  Just google it.

Its an age related thing. People grow more and more conservative and in line with republican beliefs as they grow older. Not to say that everyone does, but most of your democratic supporters will be younger and the old granparents will often be Republican.

There are also a lot of births. People, in general, are living longer.

The middle class is dwindling and the lower class in growing. The rich are getting richer and more powerful and controlling. There are 300 million American's now. The vast majority are white, we have a growing population of Hispanic (that includes those from all Latin America) and that has resulted in people saying we have a "browning of America" taking place. The largest age group is still the Baby Boomer generation, that's mine, who were born in the late 40's through early 60's. We are also the biggest consumers.

The 30's are the new 20's. Don't worry, it's women like me that hear the biological clock ticking at 26 years old, be glad that you're a guy on that account. People wait longer than ever these days.
