This is true except FoxPro really was more of a 'normal' relational database model. It just had this 'tabular' view for its Database Viewer client front-end. FoxPro was certainly not a 'spreadsheet' product in the sense that Excel is.

You mean like how crowds of people at live music events ALL have their stupid smartphones up recording the same damn recording which they should be paying attention to and absorbing the experience and living in the moment?

Forget what people should do, look at what people actually do.

Thats because there is 0 additional marginal cost for their salaried consultants' time, too. Like many in the workforce, they are a paid a salary, and it's the same amount whether working 40 hours or 80 hours.

> Politically it's a difficult problem, because the old solution of making more money available is getting out of hand, but what politician wants to stand up and tell people they can't go to the college of their dreams just because they can't afford it?

Presumably the same politicians that were around when foreclosure mania (a la 2008) occurred and ultimately were forced to change regulations that now make it much more difficult to get away with issuing subprime loans. Or in your line quoted above, substitute "college of their dreams" with "home of their dreams." The net effect, of course, is that those politicians are now telling people they can't get the home of their dreams because, gasp, they can't afford it.
