Message: [QUOTE="Crusty, post: 791865, member: 2265"] You just raised a most important point. Post war we had the best of everything in the world. The best education, healthcare, technology and futures. Unfortunately, those factors lulled us all to sleep and boomers didn't save nearly enough, didn't pay attention to public schools and allowed a terrible healthcare system to develop. It happened on our watch and we share a lot of the blame. Well, now all those advantages are long gone and we are faced with tremendous challenges. We really need to think much longer term but that is difficult with current politics. I guess you get the kind of government you deserve. Sound bites and celebrity politicians. [/QUOTE]
