2003-2012 was an amazing anomaly, but it was not normal. Normal is hard times, and we are not quite there, rather than being grateful we bitch that we had cake last year, and this year all we get is toast in jam. Old timers know that sweets are sweets. People in their 40s and 50s would rather watch their toast grow cold than admit they squandered the greatest opportunity in their lives to set their family up for generations.
