I lived through those times, this is different. The punishment for false hope is the lesson that things can always get worse.
It is always different. I was born because times before I was born were different, my parents' friends were being drafted and sent to Vietnam to die, or worse: come back mentally or physically screwed up. Apparently, being a new parent was just enough consideration to keep a college enrolled man from being taken - so they did that and here I am.
