I felt like things were improving in the ‘90s heading into the 2000s. Let’s face it, things are never perfect, so this constant reminder that even though things were improving there was all this other shit that was still wrong gets kinda old. Overall, things did seem to be calming down after the Gulf War 1, 80’s interest rates, S&L scandals, etc. and you could still reasonably follow the “school to college to get a good job” path. Then 9/11 happened and it went downhill quickly.
