There is one difference. We are now a better educated country, we know we could be Norway if we had the right government. An idle discontented well educated middle class is a big danger to unfair economic systems.

Unfortunately that seems to subject us to brain drain :( I know some well educated people who just nicked off to other countries for the better opportunities, bringing our average down.
