Slaves were sold on credit, but
the plastic credit did not happen until the post-WWII period.
It's development along with suburbia, the Eisenhower Interstate
Act and the college tuition explosion is understudied. The
actors actually look confused in this ad...honey where did the
money go? honey where did our beach go? (There is no
irony in this ad. It is fully deliberate, if
subconscious. From the music, to the text to the narrative
this is a representative idea of freedom whose genealogy begins
in the Renaissance).
