I agree with you almost 100%... but many generations have experienced and are defined by 9/11. This has been the worst since the Spanish Flu epidemic 100 years ago, where there was no hope... at least we have some hope.
The Black Plague in the 14th century was worst... as it cleared out 30-60% of the population of Europe... and the death toll is estimated to have brought the world's population from 475 million down to 350-375 million.
We just are kept informed about the total experience by news organizations, and therefore have a higher stress level than previous pandemics. Do like I do... turn off your news.
