Ah yes, I was probably 15-16 years old when this CHiPs show was released. Looking back, kids like me did not realize how good we had it. Of course there were problems with things like inflation, high interest rates, gas prices, etc. A big difference between then and now is back then people tended to have a more relaxed, almost carefree attitude. This is reflected in many TV shows of that era. Today, while many things have improved, people typically are much more serious. There are too few smiling faces.

Well, of course the key difference was that tax rates for the top 1% were like 70%, not 15% like they are today. As a result, a middle class job was for life and could support a family.
