The 80s were boom times!
Weren't the Reagan years just an anomaly?
Oh, I see, you are cherry picking 1981.
Reagan turned that shizz around after taking office in 1981.
Look at 1982, 1983, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989...all steadily declined.
You would have pointed that out except...you know...cherry picking.
