Depends on who you ask. I agree with you, in large part. The 90's were solid.
I feel like post WW2 was a sweet spot unless you happened to be not white or male. Literally anyone with an 8th grade education could get a job, buy a house, knock up the old lady a few times, get a car or two, and take vacations once or twice a year. What's more, they could plan on retiring with a reasonable expectation of dignity after buying all of those things.
