The bgr good news...
#20
Makes one wonder what happened, and is happening, to the "American Dream".

Not that long ago (my grandparents' time) few people had "jobs" like they do today. I remember seeing a census report during that time and 95% of the folks that were polled listed their "jobs" as farmers. So, think about it, farmers raise almost all of the food they eat throughout the year, they raise, harvest and preserve the meat they have throughout the year (or hunt/fish for fresher meat). If they needed something, they either improvised, made it themselves or did without (NO instant gratification there). And I remember my daddy helping his daddy to "lay by" enough firewood for the season.

All in all, you either worked or you died.

A good work ethic was admired and attained by most people. If they needed to go somewhere, most of the time they walked there.

Kinda makes you wonder about the improvements we've made in the last 100 years.
