To relocate people in and out of these homes we have 53 foot long tractor-trailers (sometimes two-or three- are needed), and a service industry with a cafeteria plan of specialty providers. Today's average move data provide this number: 23,000 pounds. That is the average move my company performed last year. How far we have come in the fifty odd years since the Second World War. From Levittown, to Leviathan. Our homes have grown, and the possessions we need to fill them have increased also. We have become a nation of consumers. Perhaps not for the better, either.
The little cape of my childhood was big enough for my dreams
