- Dating in the US has been around for 100 years and it’s always been tied to the economy.Watch our video on how the heart became ♥ http://bit.ly/2sQji2KSubscribe to our channel! http://goo.gl/0bsAjOIt may seem like the way we date is dictated by things like love and affection but it’s actually driven by something far less romantic: the economy. Dating as we know it didn’t really start until the Industrial Revolution when young people left farms and small towns to flock to cities for work. They got jobs in factories, bars, and restaurants and being away from their families for the first time offered them the freedom to mix and match with other young people. Ever since then the way single people have gotten together has been dictated by the ups and downs of the economy in the United States. We talk to Harvard’s Moira Weigel, author of “The Labor of Love: The Invention of Dating” about how our woes about dating are nothing new, they’ve been around since people starting pairing off.Vox.com is a news website that helps you cut through the noise and understand what's really driving the events in the headlines.

1 years agoThat’s fine VOX, but how about a video explaining how the Reptilian Shapeshifters shape our economy to begin with, thus shaping our love life and initiating some form of selective breeding. Idk what I’m talking about. Keep asking questions
