>"wonderful" growing up in the 80s and 90s
This is another illusion sold by corporate mass media, there was nothing 'wonderful' at all whatsoever about the 1980s or 90s.
Western society has been stagnant since the 1970s, in wages, prosperity, cultural 'evolution'/originality/production, all of it.
The 1980s, culturally, was a pale regurgitation of what had come before (in the United States it was a hollow echo of the "1950s" but with bad hairdos) and the 1990s was the beginning of postmodernism actually taking hold in (last half of the 90s with appearance of the internet culminated in the dot com bubble Pop, which was succeeded by the December 2000 installation of Cheney-Bush by U.S. Supreme Court decision in preparation for the nine months later 11 September 2001 operation, that 'saved' the global economy for another six years with infinite warfare spending)

After the 1970s western culture died, permanently. It's been regurgitation life support and simulacrum ever since

How do we fix this? In the 1950s joe could buy a house and make enough so that his wife can stay home with the kids on a single income. Now joe and his wife need 2x jobs and may never own a home, renting forever. This is not sustainable
