Certainly I agree with you, but the transition will be very painful. The most instructive numbers I have seen were comparing current situation to Great Depression, such that household debt was 100% of income in 1930, first time that had ever happened; by the time depression was over , it was 20%, didn’t go above 50% until the 80’s, then exceeded 100% again this decade; since ‘09, reduced to only 92%, so the argument is , it’s a long way to go.

Interesting info, thanks. Yes, sometimes a painful lesson is the best way for the new generations to learn.
