It was worse in 1980.

No it wasn't.

Unemployment is much much higher now.

Plus, the national debt has hollowed out our nation.

In the late 1970's and early 1980's we still have somewhat of a manufacturing base. The EPA, NAFTA, and other ignorant regulations killed that. It's much harder to start a small business now.
