“A dying culture invariably exhibits personal rudeness. Bad manners. Lack of consideration for others in minor matters. A loss of politeness, of gentle manners, is more significant than is a riot.” ― Robert A. Heinlein, Friday
True. I hurt for my children and grandchildren. My wife & I continue to do what we can to teach and support
them but, it never seems like it's enough. We truly have become a throw away society.
