Er...are we living in the same dimension?? Nuclear arms race, "Day After" paranoia rampant, homeless Vietnam vets, AIDS, cocaine, rampant blatant conspicuous consumption, Reaganomics and "trickle-down" theory, Tammy Faye and Jim Bakker, the rise of Saturday morning toy comemrcials disguised as kids' programming... uh. Yeah. LOTS to love.

Don't forget CIA infesting black inner cities with crack cocaine, Iran Contra, etc.

Butttt...thats not the 80's *I* remember. The 80's I remember was pizza time theater/showbiz pizza/chuck e cheese, arcades, acid washed jeans, awesometastic badical saturday morning cartoons, cereal, transformers, muppet babies, fraggle rock, etc.

Lol, well it's true, we tend to remember the decade we were kids in as "so much better" when in reality of course it had just as many problems as any decade.
