I have to assume it knows what it's doing.
It knows everything else - just like my wife, really.

In this case it translated it as:
it might bother you
M.D.V.
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Certainly in the UK, the 80s was the decade of Thatcherism, greed, self and excess. And I struggle to remember much of any real value coming out of it.
But on 13th July 1985, (35 years ago today), something truly amazing happened:
Live Aid - Wikipedia[^]
This raised over £50 million for the starving in Ethiopia. A famine which saw over one million people die of starvation. What a disgrace. If that fact doesn't bring a tear to your eye, watch this video:
The Cars - Drive[^]

Another . Loads of good music came from the eighties! It was the decade of synth mastery! And a lot of poof-hair bands were actually good! And even non-poof hair! Adding to your list, Billy Idol, A-Ha, Duran Duran, The Cars, Gary Numan...

Dare I say, Inxs.
Some people call them hacks, but I liked their album Kick.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

They had a few good songs! And a couple really great ones!

This is verging on Soapbox material, but I would not agree that Thatcherism was all bad - it saved the UK from the trade unions.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

I didn't say "Thatcherism was all bad". But I do think she was responsible for promoting and stimulating a 'Gordon Gekko' mindset (i.e. "Greed is good") in the UK.
However, I wasn't aiming to make a political point. The message that I hoped would come across, is that: ONE MILLION ETHIOPIANS DIED OF STARVATION in a decade when greed, self and excess was at it's height - and Live Aid was a stand-out moment, (of real good) in that decade.

When you mention these things in the same list, that's how it gets interpreted. Greed exists on all sides of the political spectrum, particularly among segments that call people greedy for wanting to keep want they've earned instead of allowing it to be extorted.

Same with Reaganomics here. Definitely a turn for the worse. And we've continued downward ever since.

Lots of good stuff happened (first space shuttle takes off, end of the Cold War, fall of the Berlin wall, first IBM PC was released, I was born), you just choose to focus on the negative.
Your glass is obviously half empty.

I think we may not share the same definition of "good"!

Oops. OK, two good things came out of the decade.
