If the average employee worked 40 hours per week- in todays money they would be earning $100,000 per year- before overtime.
That is the high standard of living that some blue collar workers had up until the late 1970's. Our manufacturing began to fall off a cliff beginning in 1980. Those high wage industrial jobs are NEVER coming back.

You wanna know how bad America is now? I came upon a thread on reddit yesterday with Indians living in the US, many with well paying jobs, sounding off about how they are now planning to move back to India where life is better than in the US nowadays.
Sample post i read there- Fellow Bay Area Indian here! I do think a lot of people in my circle seem to be moving back. People say pollution, corruption and all of that with India but honestly even the US does have its fair share of problems (homeless people,gun violence, anti vaxers and now Roe V Wade). India maybe a slow developing country but at least it’s not moving backward like the US. I earn six figures here and I have no time for myself. Laundry, cleaning, cooking and all that takes a good chunk of my time. In India, that stuff can be taken care of with house help and stuff. Quality of life often differs from person to person. To some it could mean time with family and friends, to some it could mean a shit ton of money. For some, it could mean striking a balance between both.
I do think working for someone in India is a bit hard because of the culture. You could work for your company in the US but stay in India. They’ll move to paying you in INR because of tax reasons. It’s an option to consider. But you can definitely check out opportunities within your circle back home and sense the vibe of what you maybe getting into as well. Or maybe you can start your own thing if that’s something you’re interested in. There are decent options if you do want to move back home! Good luck!

I'm the six-figure salary, the reward for having done everything right in American: I kept my nose clean, excelled at school and university, landed a job with a Fortune 500 company, rose in the ranks to make a niche for myself, achieved the recognition of peers. My salary is greater than the median cost of a house in the U.S. ($374,000 in 2021).
And yet just this year and after years of complaints at enlightened employer Google, the minimum number of employee days off a year was raised from 15 to 20. But try using them all at once if your family lives halfway across the world. Or try using them all spread out over the year, maybe not at Google but at a lot of firms where unspoken pressure exists to take vacation days off one or two at a time and then with trepidation that the boss will look askance or the bi-monthly report won't get done on time.
I'm the six-figures that buys a shitty house a ridiculous distance from my job, that makes me think Covid and Work From Home was an unexpected godsend, except that now there is talk that all of that will be undone and we'll be back at our desks? But hey, there's free breakfast and lunch and good thing because everyone works long days. And discounted pet insurance.
I'm the time for social life with friends that I don't have and family that I don't have anywhere near me, but just as well, I barely have an hour now and again anyway and I'm too tired. I'm the neighbors who are the only people I see except work colleagues, and they are always running around as if being chased; I'm not sure I ever knew their names to forget them. I'm the house that's too big and too expensive but built of flimsy construction materials to start falling apart within 15 years and with a life expectancy equal to that of the mortgage: the engineered wood floors will not last a decade, the Tyvek wrapped wood framing and clumsily stuffed insulation will bloom with mold before then; the roof will last 15 years tops; and the kitchen and bathrooms will have to be pulled down to the studs and redone every three years to keep up with whatever the neighbors and the Property Brothers are doing.
I'm the credit card bills and the mortgage and utilities and subscriptions to 8 television streaming services and tuition if I have kids and the car insurance and the expensive crates of wine in the cellar and all the things many Americans have and a few more. I'm all the credit cards bills for stuff that is unreocgnizable when I read the itemized statements: we bought what? From where? Why? Don't we already have two of those in the spare bedroom that's so overrun with stuff that it would take a crane to get it ready for actual guests?
Yes, I'm the American dream of being rewarded for doing everything right, I have an expensive house, and expensive car, I spend money right and left... and yet I am deprived of all of life's real pleasures in friends, in family, of time to read or for individual pursuits, of time to enjoy oneself without a looming schedule of being in a mad dash to pilates class or pick the dog up from the groomers.
If the dream rings hollow for me...
