But as a society, who wanted to go back to the 1950s or even the
1960s? We are at least twice as wealthy now.


True.

After the Great Depression, my father's generation valued job *stability*
above all else. I personally think that is why businesses and employees
were so loyal to one another -- those guys had seen what a complete economic
melt-down looked like, and they never wanted to repeat it.

My generation has always gone for the "big money" -- meaning that we change
jobs like my father changed socks. Combined with world competition, this
has meant that nobody even talks about "job loyalty" anymore.
