General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

The OP's premise was that audiophilia is dying due to reduced purchasing power. This is false, as even he proves with his list of modern day "essentials" (HBO, big flat screen, surround sound, computer and high speed internet, cell phone). With the exception of cable TV none of those things even existed 25 years ago. People are simply making other choices

FWIW, my "rosy" view is conditioned by 25 years working in developing countries. You want to see "indentured servitude", come and spend a week with me on the job. Then let's talk about how tough things are in the US. As for the Republicans, I agree with the other sentiments below about their reckless irresponsibility, fiscally and globally. But that is a discussion for elsewhere.
