Sometimes I realize that I've never meaningfully experienced a time when The Economy was good
Like, yeah, I was ALIVE in the 90s when things weren't completely terrible but I was also 8 on 9/11 and in high school in 2008
And, realistically, we still haven't fully recovered from 2008
The fact you can look back at, like, 2019, and go "Man, things were better then" is fucking insane, actually
