The shaky economy has really affected every aspect of American culture. Less people are spending, people are losing their homes and unemployment is at its highest since the 30's. But one truly disturbing sign that our country is in a slump is the noticeable drop in college girls going wild during Spring Break. Spring Break '09 showed the lowest amount of drunken women taking off their tops for video cameras ever. Many people are speculating as to why this is happening. A psychologist had this analysis; "Women are scared. They don't have the money to go out and get drunk enough to make horrible decisions anymore. And due to the sluggish economy most bars have done away with their 'ladies drink free' nights. Also women know how bad the job market is now and they don't want to do anything to hurt their chances with potential employers." A young woman enrolled at University of Colorado had this to say; "I just don't feel like I can afford to go wild right now. I'm staying in more and saving my money. In this economy everything is suffering. We all need to cut back. I don't even take off my clothes when I shower anymore. I was wild for years and look what it's done to our economy."
