80's Was Americas Golden Age
80's was good times
Prosperous ,people making money ,commerce was great -remember the malls and how full they were and great place for a teenager to hang out with their friends .I seriously can't remember any major war going on at that time . From there
everything slowly went downhill . Daddy Bush and then the Clinton's who took advantage of Americas new wealth and exploding new TECH -ALL DOWN HILL FROM THERE,and here we are
broken and divided -my heart weeps for us.

Good times but it was sort of 115 am at the house party. You just peaked about 30 minutes ago and the hot chick you're about to close on is outside trying not to barf, and the guy you gave 100 dollars to to score some blow is nowhere to be found.

Time to go, the cops are coming.

Canada's as well. By the way I love Lucinda Dickey!

That real hope, optimism, civility, fun and happiness is but a bittersweet memory now. I can only hope that one day the world will return to it's senses and start enjoying life again.

Everything was at it's best. Cost of living to income was great, minimal racism/division.

Only drawback was crime in certain areas and lack of information the Internet provides.

Now, the democrap version of George dumbya bush is about to take office.

Re: 80's Was Americas Golden Age
except for the enviro-tards ruining nearly everything

oh, those "biodegradable plastics" aren't

they break down to micro-particles and enter the water table and food chain


foisting ridiculousness onto the auto industry

all those thousands of stupid sensors aren't environmentally friendly to mfg. and throw out when worn out or broken

Re: 80's Was Americas Golden Age
And that was the height of those born in the 1950s to 64. They had gone through the Vietnam war and were living it up. Lots of money and prosperity. Now they are retiring and entering independent living facilities. Now anything to do with retirement and death is where it is at. Shopping malls and McMansions are a thing of the past. The 80s like the 1920s was an age of decadence. High occurred after a war. The next decade saw the decline. We will see it also. But whatever goes down does go up again.

Re: 80's Was Americas Golden Age
I think it was from early 1950's to mid 1960's

Almost everyone was decent and actually tried to be good.

Today it seems like it's a competition to see how deviant everyone can be.

Check out a film called "Dangerous Liaisons" (It's awesome) and then realize it's taken from a novel written in the 18th century (I think) 1782 to be precise.

People enjoy being deviant for quite some time, it seems.

I'm in no way trying to say that the deviancy we see today is "new".
It's just accepted openly in a social way we haven't seen for hundreds of years.
The media is pushing pedophilia and soon bestiality.
Anything goes in this post-modern era.
"Be as bad as you can be" seems to be the life motto of the average person today.
Society has collapsed and it isn't worth trying to fight to fix. It is destined for the shitter of history.

I don't know if it's going to collapse or just be re-routed. We have seen the culture change on a dime many times, and you never really know what development is going to either right the ship or send it down to Davy Jones' Locker.

I was too busy working overtime to notice.
I don't have the time or the crayons to explain this to you.
