The early 80s were a pretty miserable economic time
for a large
amount of people. Nevertheless, nostalgia for that
period is HUGE 
right now. (Likewise, the early 90s were quite rough,
as rough as today, but that won't stop the inevitable
90s nostalgia from hitting later in this decade. Its
earliest signs are there, though much of that could be
considered merely as overspill ) I still wouldn't
compare that era with the Depression or with World War
II, though (two eras which very few people feel
nostalgic for)
