Nobody was hiring in 1980 and 81. The biggest difference I see between the situation then and now is that back in the early 80’s you couldn’t even get a stupid McDonald’s job or manual labor job to hold you over. There was literally nothing out there. Now the stupid jobs are out there all over the place.

True.
The difference now is the internet. Communication is easier now & it's a vital tool in circumventing centralization.
But the debt is way worse... inflation would have to be jacked up to a height that Paul Volker couldn't have dreamed of in the 1980's.
