You aren't really whining, governments 20 years ago were worrying about "boom and bust" cycles but it feels like we only get "bust and bust" cycles at the moment.
The current boom cycle has been juiced for so long that there’s a whole generation of working people who have no idea what a bust looks like. My wife is one of them, and when I describe to her what things looked like after 2008, she thinks I’m just trying to scare her.
