Default RE: Is this what we are heading towards?

I'm sure they also remember the days when someone actually had to accomplish something before he could feel proud of himself.
Arthur P...I disagree with you on a lot of things, but that statement is nothing but 100% true. Today's mentality with EVERYTHING in life is that right there. There are so many that have everything handed to them on a plate and assume that's the way it should be. And I'm not talking about the rich living on "old" money. It's most everyone and partially including myself. I grew up on a dairy farm(small family farm) and I know what a hard days work is, but nothing like my grandpa who started the farm and didn't have all of the equipment we did. Sit down sometime and listen to the older generation, the ones that lived in the 30's and 40's and the awesome stories they have. Living out of the garden because that's all they could afford and eating some meat was a luxury. Bustin their nutz for .50 and were happier than heck. Today's society is weak. Mentally and physically. True fact, but sad. Most piss and moan about most everything and cry about a hard days work. Most none of us will ever know what an actual hard days work is like the older generation did. This isn't a slam on anyone specific by no means...just a general statement and a spin off of what Arthur said.
