Ask yourself ... honestly ... the famous question:

Is the USA (and the rest of the world for that matter) and their
respective citizens better off today than it was a decade ago?

Just on the domestic front:

Drug addiction, people on medication for depression, racial strife and
political polarization have never been so prevalent. Individual choices
have given way to "Common Core" concepts and federal mandates. State's
rights have diminished (love to see that subject challenged in the
Supreme Court) with the Federal government becoming more and more
intrusive and controlling while demonstrating how incompetent it is.

Yup, the "progressive" way is really working miracles as it continues to
infect and destroy traditional values and expectations.

Maybe some of the principles and values of 19th century thinkers should
be reconsidered. Time to wake up and say "enough is enough".

Uh, no. I find this century improved over the last.
You're just getting old and inflexible.
Probably watching too much TV.

Nope. Sorry. I am staying pretty busy. How 'bout you?
