The naughties are bracketed by 9/11 at one end and the economic crash at the other. It is filled with profligate spending on the part of government as well as the average person. It's as if we took the post 9/11 urge to go shopping way too much to heart.
I am only hoping that this new reality with a lack of cheap credit will knock some sense into us all.
