Oh, do you mean those of us who kept afloat (and moved forward) during the dismal Carter years when interest rates were over 15% on mortgages, 19% on cars and upwards of 25% on everything else?
Or those of us who in the late 80s, early 90s lost 40% or more in value on the houses that they managed to buy in spite of those earlier interest rates?
Or maybe you mean those of us here who watched city after city in the northern tier lose 95% of factory and related jobs to overseas competition.
Or do you mean those of us who dealt with all of that, didn't cry, live in our mommy's basement or blame the "older" folks but kept working, kept fighting, kept paying our bills and kept moving forward.
You young guys are so weak that it would be funny if you weren't such a drag.
We are talking about paying off an astromonical debt in a scenario where real incomes are falling.
I know we blame this one and that one - but realistically - we are only screwing ourselves w this mess since these people will be debt slaves their entire lives.
