Yes the 70's were a low point but things improved with the ending of the Vietnam war, and the end of Watergate with Nixon's resignation. I'd say 1973 was the low point of the 70's. We were still going nowhere in Vietnam, Nixon's scandal was in the news everyday, we had an oil embargo with gas shortages and wages and prices were frozen by Nixonomics. In short, we were still in a quagmire war, the President was on the verge of being ousted, gas was unavailable and really expensive, and you couldn't get a raise.your pal, Fred |
