Stagflation.

- another era like today, when the Democrats enacted policies that wrecked economic growth, and then they started claiming it was the 'new normal'.

THIS

The late '70s was Jimmy Carter fucking shit all up. We had double digit unemployment, double digit inflation, double digit interest rates, a crumbling military, two hour gas lines, and a stagnated economy.

That's it Metal.

Metal is the answer. I remember it well, not sure how I didn't think of that.

Thank you.

horrid fashion drugs and sexual debauchery
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 30392087


EXCESS- nothing in moderation, everyone went wild with music, drugs, fashion. Metal went completely to one side (with me) and disco went the other. same with drugs, sports (mixed with porn), politics (Nixon, Carter (Iran Hostages).

Complete excess of everything

Pocket calculators and LED digital watches. The earliest practical personal computers. Minicomputer's high point, used for scientific and medical advances. Many magazines for people to learn about and build electronics and microprocessor based systems. Programmable calculators for people wanting numeric computing ability without the budget for a regular microcomputer or needing portability. Electronics making major inroads in music. An explosion in microelectronics that forever changed things to come.

"That" guy was a Saint compared to what we got now.

Unless you're talking about Jimmy.

Then yea, 27% interest on a second mortgage wasn't so much fun either.

1970's was when the 60's "counterculture" went mainstream.
Divorce, Feminism, Homosexuality, Abortion, Drugs, Sex, Rock music, etc.

It was also the segue decade from Communism to middle-eastern "terrorism"

Lot of other stuff...
