I challenge you to substantiate any of your claims about easy money or a popular consensus. And by what conceit do you evaluate that as a "more rudimentary" period of time? It was the most monumental achievement in history, by talented and determined people who were totally focused on what had to be done. We should be ashamed that they did so much with what we are pleased today to consider so little. For them, it made the day. They put the "greatest" in Greatest Generation.
