Ask people who aren't your parents or grandparents how wonderful the 1980s were... try someone poor and black as a jumping off point.

There was as much promiscuity, drug use, alcoholism, etc etc in the wonderful 1950s - but it was just covered up.

Nice job completely missing the point of the article, Naso.

First of all, the actual title of this is "The mythology of the 1980s still defines our thinking on everything from militarism, to greed, to race relations."  This is not an 80s pride article.  You are going gravely to be disappointed by that book.

Poor little Naso's mind couldn't cope... "what? how could the 80s be bad? Reagan was around then..."
