this is not the 1930s

in 30s we had:

extended families and closer ties to them

agriculture/farming as a primary occupation

a higher moral fiber and sense of togetherness

we were still a bunch of farmboys-- please listen to the song country
folk can survive

we were as bunched up in large cities

we were not so dependent o foreign oil and other products

we were not so much in debt as a country or as individuals

so this no be like the 30's
