We are in precisely the same situation. The bubble just hasn't burst yet. Give it another couple of years on the same trajectory.
We're already seeing the rise, once again, of the far right, and we're in an economic bubble that makes the late 1920s look tame. My main fear is that this time the thing will detonate instead of simply catching fire.

The Reichsmark was falling like a brick. Movies and magazines that showed a decadency like that had the same effect on the less fortunate. Opium for the people. During the Great Depression: same story. And I think we are in the same situation again, be it in a lighter form.
