Nah, we do. Some of us actually grew up in them. But I'm sure you know best.
No, we were part of the majority that had money but nothing to spend it on because everything was rationed. From water and heating to tv time and groceries. There wasn't enough of anything because everything was going to export so at least on paper everything looked great and so you get to say stuff like "wow, that grass painted with toxic paint sure looks green from over here!"
