Or maybe someone has a better theory on what has changed since 1996?

Yeah, nothing has changed since 1996 except for a reduction in welfare benefits. And all those people who were thinking "score! I got a baby and my AFDC will go up a whole 'nother $120 a month!" learned their lessons.
The reduction in welfare benefits also caused the dot-com boom and bust, the fall in crime rates, and 9/11. Because, after all, nothing else has changed and generally any social trend is caused by a single factor.
