The first would be that after the first couple years most people no longer know/care about the more obscure parks at this point. Most if not all of the true landmark ones have already been issued. The second would be the fact that the designs on a lot of the national parks have been entirely to similar. Mountains/cliffs or a rock on a cliff are beautiful and all, but they get old quickly when that same design style keeps getting recycled over and over </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>People put off having kids in down economies.

The current generation growing up will be used to this if things don't improve by the time they get to the family raising age and it will likely be less of a concern then those who have fallen into harder economic situations from it.
