Working from home. Companies will realize they don't need to pay expensive rent when they can offload it to workers at home.

travel for business meetings will also be down as video conferencing will be more cost and time effective.

I wonder if The Big House, The 'Shoe, The Rose Bowl, and similar 100,000-seat venues will ever be full again.

Hollywood will go starting to video and the cash cow for big starts will burn out.

Is it really casual if you wear a mask?

The MAJORITY of us grew up in the softest times of the 20th century...

Think about it: almost the entire planet was in some way beholden to the combined Western allied forces (FDR had made a long term deal with the Saudis to insure cheap gas for some time using the needs of wartime use as the pivot point), the majority of the economy in the areas where the battles were fought were in shambles (no longer active manufacturing abilities in Europe, India, China, JAPAN.....).

When there is little to NO competition in the world you get a prolonged period of prosperity in the west as occurred from the end of the war to the mid 60's when the well established manufacturing principles of the orient and Europe cam back to a level to be competitive and then relations with the oil producing states of the middle east went sour. How could you not score big time when you filled that void??

So MOST people's REALITY was in fact, AN OUTLIER to the rest of the century and then even more so since then.

To use that time period and those political situations as somehow being a realistic standard that can be RE-Attained is almost comical in its overwhelming lack of reality and the facts of the situation.

It is nice to long for those times, BUT they are gone forever.
