[quote=FlyerInHi]There is no unraveling of America.
Some people talk about hard work, but they themselves are entitled. They expect their world not to change so they can coast along.
The world is moving faster today. There is world-wide competition so people feel less secure. Demographics are changing.

I think some people on here need to start reading old newspapers. From the late 1800s, early 1900s.
You know what you’ll find? Just as much of them was devoted to bad news, people doing idiot things, murders, riots, mayhem as today’s papers.
I know, I read them doing genealogy work here and there.
You’ll know what else you’ll find? There was a hatred of immigrants back then too. Only they were EUROPEAN immigrants. The Irish, the Italians, the Polish. All new influxes of people irritate the natives.
All of us tend to have rosy pictures of when we were younger…we forget the bad and remember the good. That’s probably a good thing, but it warps our perspective of how things have changed.
